College football: Sporting News releases post-spring top 25 poll
As we’ve discussed this week has been a big week for post-spring college football rankings. I’m not going to lie, it seems a little bit absurd to put a whole lot into what is said with over 100 days until the season kicks off.
However.
There is almost always a however.
I’m no idiot, either. I see the numbers that these rankings do whenever they’re posted so since you the people want them then we’ll continue to post and share them.
The latest comes from Bill Bender of The Sporting News. He put out his piece on college football’s post-spring top 25 on Thursday. In it Notre Dame found a top-1o landing spot so they check in higher than ESPN had them but lower than what USA TODAY Sports said earlier in the week.
Perhaps the surprise isn’t that Notre Dame is tenth, that’s right about where we would have them if we did our own, but some of the teams they’re both ahead of and trail stick out the most. Here is Bender and The Sporting News’ entire top 25:
