Picking the best college football team in each state ahead of the 2026 season​

From Alabama to Wyoming, and everywhere in between, these are the best Division I college football teams in every state​

OHIO -- Ohio State: This one was obvious as the Buckeyes remain serious national championship contenders under Ryan Day. In fact, they may be the favorite to win it all in 2026. Heisman Trophy finalist Julian Sayin is back to throw to fellow Heisman Trophy candidate Jeremiah Smith behind what should be an elite offensive line. On defense, Matt Patricia has been paid handsomely to keep working his magic.

I see one state they got wrong already

What’s a good point when initial polls should be released? After game 5?

Texas is now #1, tOSU fell to #6 in both polls. FWIW, that’s how just far I thought the drop would be.

Doesn't make a lot of sense though.... Lost to #4 on the road, you'd think we'd just swap spots. Not that any of this matters before December.

The CFP should be the only poll and there should be no poll until after week 8. I think that's a pretty solid sample size to be able to form a more correct opinion of what teams truly are.

We are not in the SEC so our losses count.

By 1 PT with little time left on the clock. After leading the entire game up to that point.

"Texas a&m may have zero quality wins but think about who their 3 losses are to"
