EAST LANSING, Mich. - Sept. 25- Here are the Michigan High School Athletic Association football playing schools which have recorded 3 or more victories through the fifth week of the season. Schools on this list are in enrollment order. An asterisk (*) besides a record
indicates that a team has 8 or fewer games scheduled.

Those schools with 6 or more wins playing 9-game schedules or 5 or more wins
playing 8 games or fewer, will qualify for the MHSAA Football Playoffs beginning
Oct. 26-27. Schools with 5-4, 4-3 or 4-4 records may qualify if the number of
potential qualifiers by win total does not reach the 256 mark. Schools with 6
or more wins playing 9-game schedules or 5 or more wins playing 8 games or fewer
may be subtracted from the field based on playoff average if the number of
potential qualifiers exceeds the 256 mark.

Once the 256 qualifying schools are determined, they will be divided by
enrollment groups into 8 equal divisions of 32 schools, and then drawn into
regions of 8 teams each and districts of 4 teams each.

The announcement of the playoff field will take place on October 21 on the
Selection Sunday Show on FOX Sports Net at 7 p.m.
