As the 2024 college football season officially comes to a close, rankings have been finalized, and a new era is on the horizon. Chris Vannini's end-of-season rankings of all 134 college football teams highlight the end of the current structure, as next season will bring the addition of Delaware and Missouri State, expanding the list to 136 teams. The top spot was predictably claimed by national champion Ohio State, but the subsequent placements sparked debate and intrigue among fans and analysts alike. Oregon's impressive performances throughout the season earned them a commendable No. 2 ranking in Vannini's list, just ahead of CFP runner-up Notre Dame, who took the No. 3 slot. Vannini justified Oregon's higher placement by pointing to their notable victories, including a win over Ohio State and four top-15 wins overall. While Notre Dame's journey to the national championship game was filled with remarkable moments, Vannini felt their overall resume lacked the depth showcased by the Ducks. Both teams had three wins over CFP contenders, but Oregon's fewer losses and quality of wins set them apart in the eyes of the ranking's author. The rankings also reveal stark contrasts in performance, with Kent State's dismal 0-12 record earning them the unfortunate title of the worst team in FBS. The Golden Flashes are moving forward under head coach Kenni Burns, who is still seeking a breakthrough after securing just one win in his two seasons at the helm. Looking ahead to the 2025 season, anticipation is building as Stewart Mandel releases his early Top 25 rankings. At the forefront, the Fighting Illini are generating buzz as a potential dark horse, sitting at No. 12. Coming off a successful 10-win season capped with a Citrus Bowl victory against South Carolina, Illinois returns a wealth of talent with 18 starters poised to contribute. This ranking marks a significant moment for the program, potentially the highest since their 2001 campaign. The conversation surrounding Iowa State remains more complex, with varying opinions on where the Cyclones should be ranked. While Mandel places them in the “just missed” category, ESPN lists them at No. 11, highlighting the uncertainty surrounding their roster after losing key receivers to the NFL. Head coach Matt Campbell and quarterback Rocco Becht face pivotal challenges heading into the new season, including a notable opening matchup against Kansas State in Dublin. The popularity of the championship game has also come under scrutiny, with a reported average viewership of 22.1 million, marking a decline from the previous season. While the matchup between Ohio State and Notre Dame promised significant fanfare, the outcome suggests a need for the sport to reevaluate its appeal and engagement strategies moving forward. As the football world shifts focus to basketball, stories like that of siblings Jaylen and Mikayla Blakes—who delivered game-winning shots in thrilling back-to-back moments—offer a reminder of the unpredictable and inspiring nature of sports. This season has closed with memorable moments and a hint of what lies ahead, as college football continues to evolve in the years to come.
