1985 NCAA Division I-A football rankings

Last updated

Two human polls comprised the 1985 National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I-A football rankings. Unlike most sports, college football's governing body, the NCAA, does not bestow a national championship, instead that title is bestowed by one or more different polling agencies. There are two main weekly polls that begin in the preseason—the AP Poll and the Coaches Poll.

There are two main weekly polls that begin in the preseason—the AP Poll and the Coaches Poll.

The 1964 NCAA College Division football rankings are from the United Press International poll of College Division head coaches and from the Associated Press. The 1964 NCAA College Division football season was the seventh year UPI published a Coaches Poll in what was termed the "Small College" division. It was the fifth year for the AP version of the poll.

The 1969 NCAA College Division football rankings are from the United Press International poll of College Division head coaches and from the Associated Press. The 1969 NCAA College Division football season was the 12th year UPI published a Coaches Poll in what was termed the "Small College" division. It was the tenth year for the AP version of the Small College poll.

The 1973 NCAA College Division football rankings are from the United Press International poll of College Division head coaches and from the Associated Press poll of sportswriters and broadcasters. The 1973 NCAA Division II football season was the 16th year UPI published a Coaches Poll and it was the 14th year for the Associated Press. Both polls used the term "College Division" in 1973, but many of the referenced publications continued to use the "Small College" terminology.

The UPI small college football rankings was a system used by the United Press International (UPI) from 1958 to 1974 to rank the best small college football teams in the United States.
