There was a big difference in belief for the Oklahoma Sooners in the two major preseason polls ahead of the 2025 college football season.
On Monday, the Sooners came in at No. 18 in the preseason AP Top 25, which is voted on by media around the country. However, last week, for the first time since 1999, OU was nowhere to be found in the top 25 of the preseason coaches poll, which head coaches (supposedly) vote on. The Sooners were the first team out while at least receiving votes.
In this case, though, maybe the college football coaches don't actually know ball.
