The US LBM Coaches Poll is voted on by a panel of AFCA-member
FBS head coaches who are chosen from a pool of coaches willing to
participate. Each coach submits a Top 25 team ranking weekly, with
a first place vote worth 25 points, second place worth 24 points,
and so on. This year’s panel includes 55 coaches from across the
country, representing the major conferences and independent schools
that will be competing this season. The coaches ranking results are
published by USA TODAY Sports online on Sundays and in print on
Mondays during the college football season. Alongside the poll, USA
TODAY’s Branded Content Studio, GET Creative will launch a new
series featuring current college football coaches and drawing
parallels between developing football programs and building
communities on USATODAY.com.
The preseason US LBM Coaches Poll marks the unofficial start to
the college football season, giving fans’ insights into where their
team is ranked prior to the start of the season. This will be the
longest season in college football history with the start of an
expanded CFP system that features 12 teams competing in the
playoffs.
“College football is important to our actively engaged sports
audience in communities across the USA TODAY Network. USA TODAY
Sports is dedicated to highlighting this content with dedicated
reporters throughout the country who cover the top nationally
ranked teams,” said Roxanna Scott, Executive Editor and Vice
President for USA TODAY Sports. “We are proud to partner with US
LBM and the AFCA to release our weekly poll, which sparks debate
and provides expert analysis among loyal college football fans
throughout the season.”
US LBM will present the US LBM AFCA Coaches’ Trophy to the FBS
team that wins the CFP national championship game and finishes at
the top in the final poll of the season in January. The US LBM AFCA
Coaches’ Trophy will also be a part of a national trophy tour for
the 2024 season, visiting various colleges and universities on game
day and interacting with fans.
“Like we do every day at US LBM, college football builds and
strengthens communities all across the country,” said US LBM
President and CEO L.T. Gibson. “We are tremendously excited for
another great season of college football and our continued
partnership with USA TODAY and the American Football Coaches
Association for the weekly US LBM Coaches Poll and the US LBM AFCA
Coaches’ Trophy.”
“The 2024 college football season is right around the corner,
and we are excited to see who our coaches have picked in the
preseason US LBM Coaches Poll,” said AFCA Executive Director Craig
Bohl. “The AFCA is grateful to partner with US LBM and USA TODAY
Sports with our weekly Top 25 poll and find out who will win the
coveted AFCA Coaches’ Trophy at the conclusion of this season.”
