Well, the month of August is finally here and that means we in the United States are less than month away from the start of the 2013 college football season. The start of August also means that the first preseason FBS rankings have been released to the public. The Top 25 teams in the USA Today coaches poll are listed below and it should come to no surprise that Alabama is the #1 ranked team in the country despite not finishing the 2012 season undefeated. Indeed, the Crimson Tide's only loss came from a Texas A&M team led by Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel. Even though Alabama won the BCS championship, again, it was Ohio State that finished last year with an undefeated season. Unfortunately, NCAA sanctions prevented OSU from appearing in postseason play. Now that the Buckeyes' sanctions have expired, it will be interesting to see how their season will fare. As for me, I am currently working on the 2nd part of my "Building a Bigger Big Ten" Series of articles. Enjoy the weekend everybody!
