Bellevue and Skyline may be the multiple-time defending WIAA state football champions in Class 3A and 4A respectively, but that isn’t swaying national voters in preseason polls around the country.

The Wolverines, winners of the last five 3A titles, sit unranked in the USA Today Super 25 and Rivals top-25 lists, and are ranked 18 in the MaxPreps Xcellent 25. USA Today lists Bellevue 29th overall and does not include the Spartans, winners of the past two 4A titles and state champs in five of the past six seasons, anywhere in its top 50 teams.

Bellevue finished 2012 ranked atop the Sports Illustrated and ESPN.com rankings.

The two will open the season at Husky Stadium Saturday, Sept. 7 in the finale of the Emerald City Kickoff Classic.
