October has come to an end and November has finally arrived. That means postseason high school football has arrived for nearly everyone and for those that haven't gotten there yet, it'll be here before you know it.
With that being the case, there are good number of top teams from around the country who won't be playing this week that we're used to seeing on a weekly basis.
Several members of the Super 25 are off this week as they earned first-round playoff byes. For the few teams that do play this week, here's who they'll be playing.
1. Santa Margarita (Rancho Santa Margarita, CA)
Does not play this week
2. St. Thomas Aquinas (Fort Lauderdale, FL)
Does not play this week
3. Buford (GA)
Friday, Nov. 6 vs. Central Gwinnett (GA), 7:30 p.m. ET

The Wolves made it three straight shutout wins last week as they crushed Discovery (GA) 67-0. They'll look to make it four consecutive shutouts and up their overall winning streak to 25 games on Friday. North Gwinnett has had its struggles this year giving up an average of 25.9 points per game.
4. Allen (TX)
Thursday, Nov. 5 vs. Walnut Grove (TX), 7 p.m. CT
Allen's run of consecutive games scoring 70 or more points came to an end last week, but it was another blowout win for the Eagles as they crushed McKinney Boyd (TX) 56-14. A win over Walnut Grove would make it three straight seasons that the Eagles finished the regular season 10-0.
5. Columbus (Miami, FL)
Does not play this week
6. Bishop Gorman (Las Vegas, NV)
Friday, Nov. 6 vs. CIVICA (NV), 7 p.m. PT

Watch Red Oak vs. North Crowley Live on NFHS Network
Make it three straight wins in a row for the Panthers in which they scored 70 or more points after they dismantled Mansfield (TX) 72-10 last week. It'll be a step up in challenge this week. Red Oak is 6-3 on the year and scored 40 or more points in back-to-back wins.

Friday, Nov. 5 at Northside (GA), 7:30 p.m. ET
Last week resulted in another win for the Yellow Jackets but they were held to a season-low 26 points. They'll look to get the offense back on track in a regular season finale against a Northside team that's lost three in a row and just gave up 56 points to Houston County (GA).
14. Brownsburg (IN)
Friday, Nov. 6 vs. Ben Davis (IN), 7 p.m. ET
Indiana's top football program had no issues in its postseason opener, cruising past Zionsville (IN) 48-10. Now they'll face a fellow purple and white squad in Ben Davis, which just crushed the Bulldogs' rival, Avon (IN), 32-10 to open the postseason.
15. De La Salle (Concord, CA)
Friday, Nov. 6 at Granite Bay (CA), 7 p.m. PT
Watch De La Salle vs. Granite Bay Live on NFHS Network
While the Trinity League teams continually battle it out and knock each other off weekly, De La Salle has been dominating Northern California's high school football scene. The Spartans have won all of their games but one by double digits and now get a Granite Bay side that's 3-6 and has been outscored 184-305.
16. Hough (Cornelius, NC)
Does not play this week
17. Trinity (Louisville, KY)
Friday, Nov. 6 vs. Pleasure Ridge Park (KY), 7 p.m. ET

Can the Shamrocks make it seven consecutive shutout wins in a row? Odds are in their favor. Trinity opens the postseason against a Pleasure Ridge Park side only averaging 12.3 points per game.
18. C.E. King (Houston, TX)
Friday, Nov. 6 vs. Channelview (TX), 7 p.m. CT
Coming off of their biggest win of the year after beating North Shore (TX), the Panthers had to hold off a Summer Creek (TX) side looking to spring the upset last week. That likely won't be the case this week as Channelview is 0-9 and just lost to North Shore 77-0.
19. Mater Dei (Santa Ana, CA)
Does not play this week
20. East St. Louis (IL)
Friday, Nov. 6 vs. St. Patrick (IL), TBA
To the surprise of no one, the Flyers didn't have many issues in their postseason opener as they cruised past Reavis (IL) 69-0. St. Patrick is a step up in challenge, but the Shamrocks did get blown out by the same Mount Carmel (IL) side that East St. Louis beat by 19 to open the year.
21. St. John Bosco (Bellflower, CA)
Does not play this week
22. Waxahachie (TX)
Thursday, Nov. 5 vs. Mansfield (TX), 7 p.m. CT
In their first game without quarterback Jerry Meyer III, the Indians ran for 214 yards as they beat Crowley (TX) 34-0. Waxahachie's regular season finale could be another good week to get the ground game going. Mansfield is 3-6 and giving up an average of 38.4 points per game.

Does not play this week
24. Central Catholic (Pittsburgh, PA)
