Recap of The Year
Voters were divided in the first poll of the 1990 college football season. The first rankings reflected the lack of consensus for a number one.
1. Miami 2. Notre Dame 3. Auburn 4. Florida State 5. Colorado
Each of the top five teams received at least three first-place votes in the initial poll. The season opening game was the Disneyland Classic between the Colorado Buffaloes and the Tennessee Volunteers in Anaheim, California. The game ended in an exciting 31-31 tie, keeping both teams alive for the national championship.
Although the first game was played on August 26, 1990, the first regular season poll was not released until September 4. Polls in 1990 were released on the Tuesday after the game.
