As the 2021 college football season comes to a close, many fans are already looking ahead to the 2023 season. While it may seem early, sportsbooks have already released their win total projections for all Power 5 teams. Let’s take a sneak peek at what we can expect from some of the top teams in the country.
Alabama Crimson Tide: It’s no surprise that Alabama is once again projected to be one of the top teams in the country. The Crimson Tide are projected to have a win total of 11.5, which is the highest among all Power 5 teams. With quarterback Bryce Young expected to return for his junior season, Alabama’s offense should be explosive once again.
Clemson Tigers: After a down year in 2020, Clemson is expected to bounce back in a big way in 2023. The Tigers are projected to have a win total of 10.5, which is tied for the second-highest among all Power 5 teams. Quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei will be a junior in 2023 and should be one of the top players in the country.
Ohio State Buckeyes: Ohio State is always a contender for the national championship, and 2023 should be no different. The Buckeyes are projected to have a win total of 10.5, tied with Clemson for the second-highest among all Power 5 teams. Quarterback C.J. Stroud will be a junior in 2023 and should be one of the top quarterbacks in the country.
Georgia Bulldogs: Georgia had a dominant defense in 2021 and is expected to have another strong defense in 2023. The Bulldogs are projected to have a win total of 10, which is tied for the fourth-highest among all Power 5 teams. Quarterback Brock Vandagriff will be a sophomore in 2023 and could be a breakout star.
Oklahoma Sooners: Oklahoma is expected to have a new quarterback in 2023 after Spencer Rattler likely enters the NFL draft. However, the Sooners are still projected to be a top team with a win total of 9.5, tied for the fifth-highest among all Power 5 teams.
These are just a few of the top teams in the country, but there are plenty of other teams to keep an eye on as well. It’s important to remember that these projections are just that – projections. A lot can change between now and the 2023 season, and injuries and other unforeseen circumstances can have a big impact on a team’s success.
Regardless, it’s always fun to look ahead and see what the future holds for college football. The 2023 season should be an exciting one, and these win total projections give us a glimpse of what we can expect from some of the top teams in the country.
