What will the final AP Poll look like this year?
There is still one college football game to be played - an all-SEC showdown between Georgia and Alabama for the national title next Monday night. But assuming that the Bulldogs and Crimson Tide will be 1-2 in some order, we can take a shot at predicting what the rest of the final AP Poll will look like when it comes out next Tuesday.
The team that will move up the most, in all likelihood? That'd be UCF, which, in its biggest test of the year, took down SEC juggernaut Auburn in the Peach Bowl. We think the Knights will move up a number of spots in the aftermath.
Here's how we think the final poll will shake out. Again, the winner of next week's national title game will be slotted at No. 1, with the loser likely coming in at No. 2.
- Alabama/Georgia
- Alabama/Georgia
- Oklahoma
- Clemson
- Ohio State
- Wisconsin
- Penn State
- UCF
- TCU
- Notre Dame
- Auburn
- USC
- Washington
- Stanford
- Michigan State
- Miami
- Oklahoma State
- LSU
- Northwestern
- USF
- Mississippi State
- Boise State
- NC State
- Toledo
- Memphis
It's going to be a long offseason.
