Here is the Preseason Coaches Poll for the 2019 College Football Season

The 2019 college football season is just around the corner and we are now getting a look at how teams are stacked up ahead of the new year. On Thursday, August 1, the Amway’s Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports released its preseason top 25 to give us an early look at the landscape of the college football world.

As you might expect, sitting at No. 1 is the Clemson Tigers. Last year’s national runner-up, the Alabama Crimson Tide, sits at No. 2. The top five in the preseason poll is rounded out by the Georgia Bulldogs, Oklahoma Sooners, and Ohio State Buckeyes.
