Final Coaches Poll for 2022 season released following national title game
Published:
The final USA Today Coaches Poll is here and the list featured three B1G teams.
All three teams cracked the top 10 and two made it into the top 5. Michigan landed at No. 3 after battling it out with TCU in the semifinals but ultimately falling short. Ohio State finished at No. 4 after its dramatic game against Georgia where it fell on a missed field goal.
Penn State finished at No. 7 after a dominant win over Utah in the Rose Bowl.
To no one’s surprise, Georgia ended the season at No. 1 after the most dominant win in a national championship game ever. TCU’s final landing spot at No. 2 might surprise some, but ultimately the Horned Frogs were one of the last two teams standing.
