2022 preseason FWAA-NFF Super 16 poll released
The 2022 preseason FWAA-NFF Super 16 poll released was released Tuesday.
About the FWAA-NFF Super 16 poll:
The FWAA-NFF Super 16 Poll was established at the conclusion of the 2013 season by long-time partners, the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) and the National Football Foundation (NFF). Voters rank the top 16 teams in the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision, and the results will be released every Sunday of the 2022 season; the individual votes of all members will also be made public. The first regular season poll will be released on Tuesday, Sept. 6 (to account for Labor Day games), and the final poll will be released Sunday, Dec. 4. The pollsters consist of FWAA writers and College Football Hall of Famers who were selected to create a balanced-geographical perspective. The poll utilizes a computer program designed by Sports Systems, a TicketManager company, to compile the rankings.
Vols Wire’s Dan Harralson is a voter each week for the FWAA-NFF Super 16 poll. Pete Fiutak of College Football News, former Alabama offensive lineman Barrett Jones and Vols Wire’s Harralson were the only voters to place Tennessee on individual preseason ballots.
