Predictions for the AP Top 2025 this college football season
The AP Top 25 poll has been released. It is time to look at the schedules and rosters of these schools to come up with some predictions for the 2025 college football season. With top-ranked Texas and the third-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes set to meet on August 30 in a massive early-season clash of the titans, here's a look into the college football crystal football. 25. Boise State Boise State will not collectively rush for the 2,601 yards Ashton Jeanty had on the ground in 2024. 24. Tennessee Tennessee will wind up playing Nico Iamaleava and UCLA in a bowl game. These things have a way of working out. 23. Texas Tech With Thaj Brooks off to the Cincinnati Bengals, Texas Tech will not have a 1,500-yard rusher for the third straight season 22. Iowa State Rocco Becht will, at some point, wind up in the Heisman discussion. Might not be for long, but there will be a period where he gets the push. 21. Ole Miss Lane Kiffin and the Rebels will not have a double-digit win season. They have won 10 or more three times in the last four years. 20. Indiana Indiana will not get to 10-0. 19. Texas A&M Marcel Reed will throw for more yards than he did in 2024 (1,864) and more touchdowns (15) than he did last season. 18. Oklahoma There will be unrest in Norman as Brent Venables fails to deliver a 10-win season for the third time in four seasons. 17. Kansas State Chris Klieman and the Wildcats will make a run to the Big 12 championship by winning 10 or more games in the 2025 regular season. 16. SMU SMU has gone undefeated in regular season conference play for the last two seasons, one in the American and one in the ACC. It will not happen for a third year in a row. 15. Florida DJ Lagway will improve on his stats of 1,915 passing yards and 12 touchdowns against nine interceptions last year. 14. Michigan Michigan quarterbacks will throw for far more than the putrid 1,678 yards the Wolverines achieved in 2024. 13. South Carolina LaNorris Sellers will flirt with an invite to the Heisman ceremony and he will lead the Gamecocks to another stellar season. 12. Illinois The Illini will break the recent pattern of going 5-7 in every odd-numbered year. They may not win 10 games but they will not lose seven. 11. Arizona State Sam Leavitt will have to throw for more than 2,885 yards and 14 touchdowns for the Sun Devils to have a chance at repeating the 2024 campaign — especially with Cam Skattebo off to the New York Giants. 10. Miami (Florida) Do not dream about Carson Beck having the same impact that Cam Ward had in 2024. It won't happen. 9. LSU Garrett Nussmeier has a big chance to move LSU up in these rankings. His season won't rival Joe Burrow in Baton Rouge but there will be plenty of highlights and headlines. 8. Alabama Kalen DeBoer will need to win more than nine games in his second season as Crimson Tide coach or else there will be a lot of unhappy people in Tuscaloosa. 7. Oregon The Ducks will not finish the regular season undefeated as they did last year. 6. Notre Dame Notre Dame will find itself in the CFP picture again because playing the ACC schedule makes it next to impossible to avoid the playoff picture. 5. Georgia Georgia will beat both Alabama and Texas in 2025 with the games at Sanford Stadium. 4. Clemson Cade Klubnik will not win the Heisman Trophy. 3. Ohio State Ohio State will lose more than two games in a season for the first time since 2011. 2. Penn State Drew Allar and the Nittany Lions will play their way into the Big Ten Championship Game. 1. Texas No matter what Arch Manning does for the Longhorns, there will be critics and people who still say it isn't enough.

Florida football lands coveted blue-chip ATH Davian Groce in 2026 cycle
Florida football added its 19th player to the 2026 recruiting class with a commitment from four-star athlete Davian Groce on Monday. The 6-foot-1-inch, 190-pound multi-positional player out of Frisco (Texas) Lone Star projects mostly as a wide receiver but also got plenty of reps at running back during his prep career. He chose the Gators over the Oklahoma Sooners — who had been at the forefront for his talents — as well as the Baylor Bears and Houston Cougars, among others. Billy Napier and Co. welcomed the Texan to Gainesville as a late addition to his official visit schedule, swinging through the Swamp from June 13-15, putting the program back into focus for the coveted student-athlete. "Definitely stands at top three, for sure," Groce told Swamp247 after his official visit. "They're definitely in the mix of where I want to go, for sure." Groce also added, "It was real positive. It's the best team morale that I've been around, that I've seen." That sentiment carried over in the following month and culminated in his commitment. As for where he might line up for the Gators, it still appears to be a wide-open case. "Just being a football player, not having a position, really being positionless," on where Florida sees him in the offense. "Just get me around the field, give me the ball, really." Davian Groce's Recruiting Summary Groce is ranked No. 47 overall and No. 4 at his position nationally according to the 247Sports composite, while the On3 industry ranking has him at Nos. 60 and 6, respectively. He ranks No. 36 on the ESPN 300 and No. 4 at his position nationally. Davian Groce's Scouting Report per 247Sports Dynamic offensive weapon experienced at running back and receiver who could play either at the high-major level Owns a receiver's build with strong pass-catching production, but verified athleticism particularly stands out when stacked vs. running back class That said, multiple sources indicate a desire to play receiver Displays impressive body control and spatial awareness in the air and along boundaries Plays with some subtle speed-changing modulation evident in run-after-catch ability at receiver and second-level playmaking at RB Unorthodox gait that appears somewhat tight-hipped, but ankle flexibility shows in foot quickness Texas 5A 200-meter champion as a junior Field-stretching linear speed supported by multi-sport data, but a build-up runway aids in reaching highest gear Reveals some gear-down when redirecting Valuable basketball participation pervasive in NFL Draft results across positional spectrum, but particularly frequent in skill players/pass catchers Likely one of the top offensive playmakers in TXHSFB and the country for the 2026 class. Projects as a high-major receiver who can give you personnel/game plan flexibility with a clear long-term NFL ceiling.
