  • Poll Methodology:

    • The poll is for publicity purposes only and has no weight or bearing in the selection process for national championship field consideration.
    • A panel of head coaches representing each conference and Continental Athletic Conference (Independents) voted on the poll.
    • The Top 10 is determined by a points system based on how each voter votes the best teams. A team receives 15 points for each first-place vote, 14 for second-place, 13 for third-place and so on through the list.
    • The highest and lowest ranking for each team (a non-rating is considered a low rating) is removed.
    • Teams that receive only one point in the ballot are not considered "receiving votes".
