Blogpoll Ballot, Week 1
The start of the college football season is 10 days away and while it still feels like an eternity, the light is at the end of the tunnel.
That means it's time for a wild guess as to the preseason Top 25. The Sports Frog continues to participate in the college football Blogpoll Top 25. At the end of the season, the national champion crowned by the nation's college football bloggers is awarded the prestigious Mom's Basement Cup.
Every week, I'll compose a ballot, post the first draft in the Swamp and get opinions and feedback from Swampers. Most Swampers didn't like my placement of Oklahoma, but I'm sticking with my guns.
So with that, here's the preseason top 25:
