Mavric Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Yeah, I know it's Bleacher Report but it's an interesting look at the "value" of pre-season polls. As mentioned in the previous slide, 10 teams that began the 2013 season ranked in the AP's Top 25 were unranked come the final poll. Consequently, that meant 10 schools who ended the season in the rankings were not among the Top 25 back in August. And what a list those unranked teams made up: Auburn (2nd) Michigan State (3rd) Missouri (5th) Central Florida (10th) Baylor (13th) Arizona State (21st) Duke (23rd) Vanderbilt (24th) Washington (25th) Link Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 Three of the final Top 5 and four of the Top 10 weren't even ranked to start the year. Ouch. Quote Link to comment
