Iowa State (32), West Virginia (2), and Colorado (1) also received votes in the Preseason AP Poll.

While Utah, Oklahoma State, Kansas State, and Arizona all rose just one spot, Lance Leipold and the Kansas Jayhawks were the biggest movers of any team in the Big 12 Conference. The Jayhawk’s dominant 48-3 win over Lindenwood reminded fans how impressive the offense could be with a healthy Jalon Daniels at the helm and paved the way for the Jayhawks to leapfrog the Arizona Wildcats.
When looking at the Power 4 Conferences, the SEC leads all conferences with eight ranked teams; the Big Ten falls just behind with six ranked teams, and the Big 12 and the ACC each have five teams ranked in the Top 25.
