by Jeff Wright, posted in Football

The first college football AP (Associated Press) Preseason Poll was released today and the Huskies will start out the season as the #13 ranked team in the nation.

Washington is the second highest ranked team in the country among Pac-12 teams and was also recently ranked #12 in the Amway Coaches Poll.

Ironically, last season the Huskies finished the final AP Poll of the season at #13 as well after finishing with a 10-4 overall record.

The Huskies are finishing outside of the top ten due to the perception of losing nine starters on defense and the uncertainty on offense.

  1. Clemson
  2. Alabama
  3. Georgia
  4. Oklahoma
  5. Ohio State
  6. LSU
  7. Michigan 
  8. Florida
  9. Notre Dame
  10. Texas
  11. Oregon
  12. Texas A&M
  13. Washington
  14. Utah
  15. Penn State
  16. Auburn 
  17. UCF
  18. Michigan State
  19. Wisconsin
  20. Iowa
  21. Iowa State
  22. Syracuse
