The football season is less than a month away as we enter the month of August. With it, we also get the initial Amway Coaches Poll to see where teams stack up according to college football coaches.
The initial poll looks very similar to the final poll from last year with Clemson at the top followed by the Alabama Crimson Tide. Those two teams were the only teams to receive first-place votes with Clemson getting the majority with 59.
Four SEC teams start in the top ten with Georgia at #3, LSU at #6 and Florida at #8. Texas A&M just missed at #11 with Auburn at #16 to put six of the 14 teams in the top 25.
UCF was the highest ranked Group of 5 team in a tie for 17th place with Wisconsin. Boise State and Army just missed out on the top 25.
