Weekly Rankings · Sources and Coverage

Sources and Coverage

All 17 ranked lists were compared across retained source tables. This edition contains 426 ranked positions. Points and first-place counts appear where verified; a dash means unavailable, not zero. Known source differences, reviewed selections and unresolved arithmetic exceptions are documented with the affected polls and downloads.

These rankings downloads contain the published ranked teams. Other teams receiving votes and individual ballots appear in separate ballot editions where available. Sources can share upstream data, so agreement is not proof that every original ballot was correct. Current logos identify programs; they do not represent historical artwork or conference membership.

Week labels follow the retained source sequence. A preseason poll appears only when the sources include one. The final poll belongs to the 2024 season. Unverified publication dates remain unspecified in the downloads.

Historical Coverage

Historical Data · Reconstructed Edition

This historical dataset is reconstructed from archived records and may contain source, transcription or attribution errors. It retains 1,047 attributed ballots and one unattributed record. Matching totals does not prove each named ballot. The November 10 record has conflicting source labels; no submitter is selected. Known source corrections and an alternate ballot edition are documented.

Sources and Verification

1,043 ballot records have matching names and choices across retained archives. Corrections, image-only supplements, alternate lists and unresolved attribution carry their own evidence notes. Reconstructed totals match retained result evidence for 17 releases with complete ballot coverage; 0 also have a separate dated AP result table. Complete, unchanged author lists agree with 7 ballots. No complete AP-hosted named-ballot set was available for direct comparison.

Archives may share upstream material; matching grids are not independent voter confirmations.

Voter names are preserved from the historical records. Participation changes do not establish why a voter was absent or replaced. Current voter profiles and affiliations are not used to fill historical gaps.
