Preseason rankings are meaningless, and Week 1 rankings are only slightly less meaningless. Especially in the age of the College Football Playoff and its 13 wise sages on the selection committee, where one and only one poll truly matters. Regardless, the United States Constitution requires every outlet writing about college football to produce its own Top 25, and this site has no interest in defying Uncle Sam.
Scott released the inaugural FootballScoop Top 25 on Sunday, and the AP responded with its Week 1 list on Tuesday. Volatility is the name of the game in these early weeks. There's nothing worse than sticking to your preseason beliefs when results fly in the face of those preseason beliefs, simply because that's where you had them back when no one knew anything.
We've placed the FootballScoop Top 25 opposite the AP Top 25, with Zach's comments on who got it right on the side. But that's just one man's opinion. Who do you think got it right?
