The Nat Moore Trophy represents the absolute best of South Florida high school football excellence on the field, leadership off it.

Four of the state's seven FBS schools sit at 4-5 after nine games. That's pretty fitting, actually, if not great. USF and Miami stay at 1-2.

When the second round of College Football Playoff Rankings were released on Tuesday, Miami found itself slotted as the top team in the ACC. Because of the placement, the Hurricanes were mocked into CFP bracket projections and graphics as the projected ACC champion as the 11-seed.

No. 1 Ohio State, No. 2 Indiana and No. 3 Texas A&M are the remaining unbeatens. South Florida became the first Group of Five team to appear in the top 25.

NC State's sophomore quarterback is trying to treat Saturday's game against the Hurricanes like any other game.

Aside from being preseason goal, Ole Miss football making a deep CFP run could put Florida, other schools wanting Lane Kiffin in tough spot.
