Hokies are best bet to push USC
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Editor’s note: Tony Barnhart has covered college football over three decades, and was a voting member of the AP football poll for 15 years. Because of a new AJC policy against beat writers participating in news-making events (polls, All-Star games, etc.), Tony will not vote in this year’s AP poll. However, here’s how he would have filled out his ballot for the preseason top 25:
- USC
- Virginia Tech
- Tennessee
- Texas
- Ohio State
- LSU
- Louisville
- Michigan
- Iowa
- Florida
- Oklahoma
- Miami
- Georgia
- Florida State
- Boston College
- Auburn
- Texas A&M
- Arizona State
- Purdue
- Boise State
- Pittsburgh
- Fresno State
- California
- Virginia
- Alabama
