RobbinsAthletics.com highlights major shake-ups in California's CIF Southern Section football rankings after a weekend of surprising upsets that reshuffled the state's top teams
LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Week 7 of California high school football action brought chaos to the CIF Southern Section rankings, as several underdogs delivered statement wins and some of the state's perennial powerhouses found themselves on the wrong side of lopsided scores.
According to Sports Illustrated's updated Top 25 CIF Southern Section Rankings, the latest results caused one of the biggest midseason shake-ups of the year — a reminder that even the most dominant teams can't afford a single off night.

Programs that started the year flying under the radar are now knocking on the door of the Top 10, while traditional heavyweights are being forced to reassess strategies heading into the stretch run.
Fans and analysts alike are calling this one of the most unpredictable CIF Southern Section seasons in recent memory — a perfect storm of developing talent, competitive parity, and fearless scheduling.
