Catholic League Football Playoff Seedings: Three Weeks Left
With three weeks left in the regular season, Edna Karr, Rummel and St. Augustine look likely to remain atop the Division I select power ratings. Jesuit and Brother Martin are positioned for top-eight finishes—and the first-round byes and second-round home games that come with them—while Holy Cross and John Curtis could climb despite losing records. The remaining schedule still offers major chances to shift the pecking order, especially for St. Augustine and Jesuit.
By the Numbers- Karr is 7-0 and riding a 34-game winning streak; St. Augustine is also 7-0.
- Rummel is 6-1; Jesuit and Brother Martin are both 5-2.
- Chalmette is 3-4 and currently No. 23 in the Division I nonselect rankings; it must finish No. 28 or higher to qualify.
The current standings are far from settled: St. Augustine faces Brother Martin, Karr and Rummel, while Jesuit closes against Rummel and Karr. Meanwhile, Chalmette’s playoff hopes depend on its nonselect ranking, and John Curtis’s difficult schedule has helped keep its power-rating position relatively high despite a 2-5 record.
State of Play- Jesuit and John Curtis meet this week in a matchup that could shake up the ratings.
- Chalmette faces Karr, Brother Martin and John Curtis to finish district play.
- The seven District 9-5A teams in the select bracket are expected to reach the playoffs; their seeding remains unsettled.
The final three weekends will determine whether the leading teams hold their positions, which schools earn top-eight byes and whether Chalmette reaches the nonselect cutoff.
Bottom LineThe playoff picture is taking shape, but the closing schedule could still reorder the bracket—and St. Augustine faces the toughest test among the contenders.
