Week 7 of the 2024 Oregon high school football season is in the books, and High School on SI is unveiling its fourth computer rankings for the state.

West Linn remains atop the Class 6A rankings, with fellow undefeated teams Lake Oswego, Central Catholic and Sheldon following the Lions.

Unbeaten Dallas and Mountain View hold the top two spots in Class 5A, while Cascade holds a comfortable lead in 4A, with one-loss teams Scappoose and Marist at No. 2 and No. 3.

SBLive's formula was created using its linear algebra-based ranking algorithm inspired by the Colley Bias-Free Ranking Method. Colley’s Method was created by Wes Colley, Ph.D., an astrophysicist at the University of Alabama at Huntsville. He devised his algorithm to help address the subjectivity and controversy regarding BCS college football selections in the 1990s and early 2000s, using a method that used no subjective variables.
