NEW YORK (AP) – In a story about the Associated Press Top 25 college football poll, the AP reported erroneously that No. 1 Oklahoma had 32 first-place votes and No. 2 Alabama had nine. The correct number is 31 for Oklahoma and 10 for Alabama.
The error was discovered when a voter sent an email saying the wrong ballot was attributed to him. It was determined that another voter’s ballot was counted twice.
Three rankings also changed as a result of the mistake.
Nebraska slipped from No. 10 to No. 11, trading places with South Carolina.
Texas moved up a notch from 24 to a tie for 23 with TCU.
