Post-Spring College Football Top 25 Poll Released

 

College football spring ball is in the books and it's time to look ahead to the 2025 regular season.

 

Classes are wrapping up on campuses across the country. Summer is approaching. Before you know it, teams will be reporting to fall camp, with Week 1 less than four months away.

 

While there could still be some transfers and recruiting commitments, most rosters are pretty much set for the 2025 season. With spring football in the books, a post-spring college football Top 25 poll has been released on Monday morning, April 28.

 

Which teams are in the best shape heading into the fall?

Only 9 SEC teams ranked in the Top 25? Better call Pawalll! Including Others Receiving Votes (ORV), No. 50 Vandy makes it 14 SEC teams receiving votes. With 8 conference games left overs Arkansas and Mississippi State will probably go bowling.

B1G comes in at 6 Top 25 and 11, including OTR.

5 B12 teams ranked again prove that with a 12-team PO, only 12 teams plus a P4 conference champ and the top G5 contender if not in the top 12, are all that need to be ranked.

One thing I would like to see😍 is No. 7 Oregon hosting No. 10 MIA and Mari-oh-oh in a 1st round game.

Since 1984 (!), no team ranked lower than 15th in the most important CFB final regular season ranking has won a title the following year.

In its final 2024 poll, the PO committee ranked Clemson 16th. Dabo doesn't care. Rarely does this kind of hubris go unpunished.

Quite impressive (QB player). For sure one to look out for when playing Iowa.

3. Iowa Hawkeyes

Iowa’s defense is always reliable. Thus, all eyes are on its offense entering the 2025 campaign. And, in an unusual twist of events, the Hawkeyes fans have reason to hope for brighter days.

Iowa landed South Dakota State transfer quarterback Mark Gronowski this offseason. Gronowski was one of the most experienced quarterbacks in the transfer portal. In his four years at SDSU, Gronowski amassed 10,330 passing yards, 1,767 rushing yards, 93 passing touchdowns and 37 rushing scores.

I can see why J.D. Pickell (analyst) has this marked Upset Alert.for our Ducks. Very difficult place to play at.

Dabo predicts 16-0 for his Clemson Tigers in 2025. Not so fast!

Clemson was ranked No. 16 in the final committee poll. Since 1984, no team ranked lower than 15th in the relevant last season polls, AP and UPI, the BCS, and now, PO Committee, has won a national championship.

Dabo or LSU coach Brian Kelly, no opening game wins in his tenure at LSU, will have to eat Tiger after the opening game. Like Ohio State vs. Texas, Clemson is -2.5 to win in its version of Death Valley.
