The IHSA football playoffs are one of the most exciting events in Illinois high school sports. Last year, over 250 teams competed in the playoffs, with eight teams emerging as state champions. This year's playoffs promise to be just as competitive, with several top teams vying for the title.

The IHSA uses a complex formula to determine the playoff pairings. Factors such as regular season record, strength of schedule, and head-to-head results are all taken into account. The top 16 teams in each class will qualify for the playoffs.

The playoffs will begin on November 4th with the first round of games. The quarterfinals will be played on November 11th, followed by the semifinals on November 18th. The state championship games will be held on November 25th and 26th at Memorial Stadium in Champaign.
