The Football Writers Association of America came out with its Super 16 poll on Thursday morning. To the complete shock of no one, defending national champion Ohio State topped that list.

While the Buckeyes received an overwhelming amount of first-place votes, it wasn’t unanimous. TCU and Alabama got one vote apiece while the other 38 writers voted for Ohio State.

Also in the poll was Michigan State at No. 6, which was one spot below Week 2 opponent Oregon. Sparty racked up a total of 418 points.

Here’s a look at the complete list:

1. Ohio State (638)
