How will LSU, Michigan and Oregon fare in the AP Top 25?
LSU, Michigan, and Oregon entered the AP Top 25 rankings with promising records after Week 1 of college football's return. The preseason poll, initiated in 1936, ranks teams based on a 1 to 25 point system, with the No. 1 team receiving 25 points and the 25th team receiving 1 point. The Southeastern Conference led the preseason rankings with nine teams, followed by the Big Ten with eight teams.
Notably, LSU emerged undefeated against Clemson in a 51-10 victory, while Oregon narrowly defeated Boise State 51-48 after trailing for most of the game. Michigan secured a controversial 13-12 win over Western Michigan due to the clock being put back on after time expired.
