Mission Viejo Diablos
The Diablos are certainly one of the top teams in the state, but they also begin the season at No. 22 in the SBLive/SI Top 25 preseason high school football rankings.
Look for them to excel in the passing game this year with an offense that utilizes a two-quarterback system to get the ball to dynamic playmakers and 4-star recruits like Vance Spafford and Phillip Bell.
Santa Margarita Eagles
The Eagles got out to a hot start in 2023, but fell off at the end of the year losing five of their final six games.
This is a new season though, and there's a buzz surrounding Santa Margarita heading into 2024.
A win against Mission Viejo could move them up in the state and Southern Section rankings, but if they win either of their October matchups against Mater Dei and St. John Bosco, there's a good chance they might just shake up the national rankings as well.
