Last week I asked readers to help me create the definitive preseason top-25. Using those suggestions (thank you, by the way), I think what we have is a pretty solid poll.
But it's still a preseason poll, so there is a good chance that by week three, we all look foolish for our votes.

The changes I made from the first draft:
I bumped Arizona State up two spots to 15.
I dropped Michigan and Oregon State, instead adding Fresno State and Cal (though Rutgers and Boston College were considered).
Remember, it's just a preseason poll, so don't take it too seriously.
