Georgia voted No. 1 in college football preseason AP Top 25 – MASHAHER


Georgia is atop the college football preseason AP Top 25 too.

A week after the Bulldogs were picked as the No. 1 team in the coaches poll, Georgia was also chosen by the voters in the AP poll as the top team in the country heading into the 2024 season. The Bulldogs got 46 first-place votes and are ahead of Ohio State, Oregon, Texas and Alabama.

The Buckeyes got 15 first-place votes and Oregon got one. No other team got a first-place vote.

Notre Dame and Florida State are the only two teams in the top 10 who aren’t members of the Big Ten or SEC. Ole Miss is at No. 6 ahead of the Fighting Irish and Penn State is at No. 8 ahead of the defending national champion Michigan Wolverines and FSU at No. 10.

Like the coaches poll, the first AP poll of the season is filled with power conference teams and Notre Dame. There are no teams from the Group of Five conferences in the top 25, and Boise State is the top team outside the power conferences among the teams also receiving votes.

The similarities go even further too. The top 11 teams in each poll are the exact same down to the order and the polls are filled out with the same 25 teams. The first difference in rankings between the polls is at No. 12. Utah is there in the AP poll, while LSU is there in the coaches poll.

With the polls having the same 25 teams, that means there are nine SEC teams in the top 25, while the Big Ten has six teams in the top 25. The Utes are one of five Big 12 teams in the poll and there are three other ACC teams in the top 25 along with Florida State.
