High school football schedule for USA TODAY Sports Super 15 teams

Over the next few weeks, high school football will return in full swing in nearly all corners of the country.

Hawaii got things going before anyone else last week and Georgia saw its season kick off for a few teams this week during the Corky Kell and Dave Hunter Classic.

However, most of the country kicks off next week, with the final few states getting going over the following two weeks. With that in mind, it's never too early to check and see who the top teams in the country play to kick off their seasons.

Ahead of the season, we ranked the top 15 teams in each region. Nearly all of those teams get going at some point in the next two weeks.

Here's a look at who each team we ranked in their respective regions kicks off their season with in the coming days, or who they already played in their first game.
