College sports have always been a popular way for
people to pass time and enjoy themselves. College sports are also
important to the people who are more than serious about their sports.
College players are good to get familiar with as they may one day be in
the Major Leagues. College football rankings of this year are varying
only a little from poll to poll. Most of these poll's top three are
basically the same teams only slightly out of order from poll to poll.
The statistics and information in this report are from the two top
polls: The Associated Press Poll and the USA Today Poll. They show many
similarities and were both taken recently to this writing.
At the
top of both of these polls is the Louisiana State Tigers. This team has
drawn in over a thousand votes on both polls. Last year they were
prospected as the second best team in the college football world, but
they have worked they way up to first this year. The second pick on
Associated Press is Georgia with over fifteen hundred votes and USC is
the third pick with fifteen hundred votes exactly. However, the USA
today poll shows USC second with one thousand three hundred and eighty
votes and Georgia in third place with one thousand three hundred and
seventy votes. So, the top three picks on these polls are the same with
just a little variation. It is quite close between Georgia and the
University of Southern California, so it will be interesting to find
out who really is the better team this year.
Ohio State hit both
of these polls in the top five as well. For the Associated Press poll,
Ohio State comes in at number five on the rankings with a little over
thirteen hundred votes. Ohio State stands at number four in the USA
Today ranking with nearly thirteen hundred votes. Missouri is also
located in each of these poll's top five. Missouri is number four on
the Associated Press poll and number five on the USA Today poll. So,
the top five are also in agreement between both of these polls with
only small variations and very similar amounts of votes. This season of
college football should be an exciting one. It will be interesting to
watch this season unfold and see who really comes out on top and to see
who beats who. With the poll rankings on these sites being so very
close together in their top five, it seems like this will be an edge of
your seat year in the world of college football. And many of this
year's top college football players are seniors, and may be making way
for a great football future in the National Football League.
Another
popular poll has about the same top five as the Associated Press and
USA Today polls with some small variations. This is the Bowl
Championship Series Rankings and is also well known. Number one on
their top five is the Ohio State Buckeyes. Number two is the Louisiana
State Tigers. Number three is the Virginia Tech Hokies. Number four on
the poll is the Oklahoma Sooners and number five is the Georgia
Bulldogs. The BCS college football rankings are very important because
they determine who goes to the important bowl games played near the end
of each season, and which are watched by millions.
