ESPN this week released an updated 2021 college football preseason ranking.
It comes as no surprise who is at the top of ESPN staff writer Bill Connelly’s SP+ rankings (subscription required), with defending national champion Alabama ranked No. 1 and Clemson checking in at No. 2.
Oklahoma, Ohio State and Georgia round out the top five, in that order.
The SP+ rankings are an opponent- and tempo-adjusted power ranking designed to be predictive and forward looking. It is based primarily on returning production, recent recruiting and recent history.
