SEC Dominates Preseason Rankings | Oregon Ducks Football News

College football’s preseason AP Top 25 has Ohio State and Oregon locked in as the top two, with the Buckeyes dominating with 40 first-place votes and the Ducks close behind with 14. Georgia drops to third without a single first-place vote, while Notre Dame and Texas round out the top five. Surprisingly, defending champs Indiana leap into sixth with eight first-place votes, and Miami follows at seventh. The SEC dominates with seven teams in the top thirteen and nine overall in the top twenty-five — their strongest showing since 2017 — while Alabama, for the first time since 2008, falls outside the top ten. The Big Ten has three teams in the top six and eight total in the top twenty-five. Clemson, once a consistent top-four force, is completely absent from this year’s list — a major shift from its steady presence since 2011.
