1960 NCAA University Division football rankings

January 08, 2023

Two human polls comprised the 1960 NCAA University Division football rankings. Unlike most sports, college football's governing body, the NCAA, does not bestow a national championship, instead that title is bestowed by one or more different polling agencies. There are two main weekly polls that begin in the preseason—the AP Poll and the Coaches Poll.

  • The Ivy League has prohibited its members from participating in postseason football since the league was officially formed in 1954.
