eSports Media Group College Football Poll

The eSports Media Group Poll was postponed last week because of the horrendous tragedies in New York, Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania, and the rest of this country.

Our deepest sympathies go out to the victim's families. Our hearts are with you.

These rankings are through the last games played on September 8, 2001.

Miami, Florida, Oklahoma, and Texas continue to occupy the top four spots. Nebraska is back at No.5, just 8 points behind the Longhorns. Oregon and FSU are next and separated by just four and a half points.

The next four teams: Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, Tennessee, and Fresno State are separated by 18 points. Fresno State jumps from No. 20 to No. 11 with the big road win against Wisconsin.

Coming in at No. 12 is Washington followed by Kansas State, UCLA, and LSU. Nos. 16 through 19 have just 10.5 points between them. Michigan, Mississippi State, South Carolina, and Clemson are as close as any four teams in the poll.

Northwestern comes in at No. 20 and the rest of the poll is rounded out by Oregon State, Ohio State, Notre Dame, BYU, and Toledo.

Toledo and BYU make their Top Twenty-Five debuts this year, replacing Georgia and Wisconsin. The full eSports Media Group poll follows:
