The New Polls are Here! The New Polls are Here!

To the surprise of no one, the Florida Gators are the near-unanimous choice as the #1 ranked team in College Football. In fact, they got 58 out of 60 first place votes, the other 2 going to Texas.

The over-hyped preseason pollsters seem to think the Gators will repeat and they have several teams in what we can only say are..."Interesting" postions. But, as we all know, preseason polls are "NEVER" right at the end of the year and really, if you think about it don't mean a whole lot other than they pretty much eliminate a large chunk of Division 1 teams from reaching BCS Game status before the season ever starts. But enough of my logical ranting...here is your story from CBSSports.com.

And for those of you keeping track...your Top 25 are right here: ((Courtesy: Associated Press))

1. Florida
2. Texas
3. Oklahoma
4. USC
5. Alabama
6. Ohio State
7. Virginia Tech
8. Mississippi
9. Oklahoma State
t. Penn State
11. LSU
12. California
13. Georgia
14. Boise State

18. Florida State
19. Utah
20. Brigham Young
21. North Carolina

We don't pretend to know how some of these teams (Florida St., Notre Dame, Iowa) make it on this list but yet they are here. We post things such as this as a courtesy, but we challenge anyone to see just how accurate they really are at the end of the year.
