Week 8 of the 2024 Oregon high school football season is in the books, and High School on SI is unveiling its latest computer rankings for the state.

Lake Oswego posted the biggest win of the year in Oregon with a victory over previous Class 6A No. 1 West Linn, but Central Catholic is right behind the Lakers in our rankings.

Silverton took over the top spot from the undefeated Dallas Dragons after the Foxes' 45-27 win over Wilsonville.

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.
