FHSAA high school football, Mandarin-Oakleaf highlights
Mandarin played Oakleaf for the FHSAA District 2-6A high school football championship in Jacksonville. See three highlights from the game.
The Sunshine State Athletic Association released its postseason brackets, setting up the playoff schedule for more than a dozen Jacksonville-area high school football independents.
These brackets begin play Thursday, Oct. 30, leading up to the SSAA finals in The Villages in November.
Under the SSAA system — distinctly different from the Florida High School Athletic Association playoffs, which open Nov. 14 — teams are grouped into their respective brackets based on their performance during the season.
Here are the pairings for Jacksonville-area teams in the SSAA playoffs. The association has listed these games at 7 p.m. Oct. 31 for now, but could change some kickoffs to Thursday, Oct. 30.
