The Future Power Rankings series finishes up with the team rundown, designed to supply the most total forecast for both the short-term and the seasons that will follow.As a reminder, FPR is not an one-year projection, however sets out to predict the very best in college football throughout the next 3 seasons(2024, 2025 and 2026). The personnel photo will continue to vary, however FPR must consider what is known at the moment, both with existing players and dedicated recruits, while also noting track records for coaches, units and general teams.The 2024 season will be historic for its adjustment entries, as the SEC (Texas, Oklahoma), Big 10 (USC, UCLA, Oregon, Washington ), Huge 12(Utah, Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado)and ACC (SMU, Cal, Stanford)all include new members. Groups moving leagues usually have a hard time in Year 1, but a three-year forecast looks beyond the immediate.There’s also substantial modification in college football’s upper crust, as Nick Saban, thought about the best coach in the sport’s history, retired in January after winning 7

national titles, six at Alabama. Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh left for the NFL after leading the Wolverines to their first national title considering that 1997. Of the groups in the final four-team College Football Playoff, 3(Alabama, Michigan and Washington )had training changes and the other(Texas )is set to move conferences.The previous FPR rankings for quarterbacks, defenses and offenses notify the comprehensive team rankings, but so do other aspects such as training continuity and current record. Oklahoma State didn’t appear in any

of the first three leading 25s but made the group rundown. Finally, here’s a look at the most current FPR group rankings.Let’s get to the new top 25.
