13 preseason polls now included in full (ESPN.com, Bleacher Report, CBSSports, Sporting News, ESPN FPI, Fansided.com, Sports Illustrated, Athlon, Yahoo Sports, McIllece Sports, Lindy's, Street & Smith).
Here are the combined rankings:
1. Alabama- 320
2. Ohio State- 305
3. Florida State- 294
4. USC- 284
5. Clemson- 251
6. Penn State- 249
7. Oklahoma- 248
8. Washington- 243
9. Auburn- 203
10. Oklahoma State- 183
11. Wisconsin- 182
12. LSU- 178
13. Michigan- 174
14. Georgia- 154
15. Louisville- 152
16. Stanford- 134
17. Florida- 99
18. Miami- 78
19. S. Florida- 71
20. Kansas State- 68
21. Texas- 64
22. W. Virginia- 60
23. Tennessee- 38
24. TCU- 34
25. Washington State- 31
26. Notre Dame- 30
27. Virginia Tech- 28
28. Oregon- 22
29. Boise State- 13
30. Nebraska- 7
31. Texas A&M- 6
31. NC State- 6
33. Northwestern- 5
34. UCLA- 3
35. Pittsburgh- 2
35. Utah- 2
37. Mississippi St.- 1
37. Memphis- 1
37. N. Carolina- 1
37. Wyoming- 1
I've found that once you get this many preseason polls all averaged together, it becomes a fairly accurate projection of what the actual AP Poll will look like in August upon its initial release. Most every team should be within 2-3 spots of where they sit above.

Nice. Glad we're not top 5 again. Honestly it'd be great if we weren't ranked at all

We could beat every team 16-37 pretty much every Saturday and we aren't even on the list...

Auburn has high expectations?
Prepare for the crash and burn.

Seems about right, but I thought UT said they should be top 10?

Still think Auburn should be where LSU is, LSU should be where Georgia is ranked and Georgia should be where Auburn is ranked.
