Where is Ohio State when it comes to consecutive years of appearing in the AP college football Poll?

The Associated Press college football poll has been around since 1936 and has been widely known as the most accurate,

[{"selector":"#anim-e10ef6eb-2599-445c-8428-4024f5e81b10","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

and reliable since then until now. The College Football Poll is the one that matters these days

[{"selector":"#anim-828f06c3-964d-4bf8-9eb7-851d95d643e0","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

, but the AP Poll is steeped in history.

[{"selector":"#anim-4c49028e-8345-4239-bb17-97e4b5e95a53","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

There are quite a few programs that use the AP poll like a turnstile, entering and exiting in a cyclical nature with periods of peaks ,

[{"selector":"#anim-131a15df-826d-40d4-985e-9a799ef44d6f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

and valleys, and then there are others that seem to always make an appearance in the poll.

[{"selector":"#anim-17e085dc-5bdb-484d-b9f7-268c223bedd2","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

A team like Ohio State is the latter, but so too are programs like Alabama, Oklahoma, Georgia, and others.

[{"selector":"#anim-17c4d301-5318-44c5-9c6c-cbcf17ed4e60","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

But one team has a streak of making an appearance in the AP Poll much longer than any other.

[{"selector":"#anim-c97b4d55-6340-4508-8bb0-60ee3692ab7e","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

You might (or might not) be surprised at which team reigns supreme, but we won’t keep you guessing any longer.

Here is a look at the top ten college football programs that have the longest active streak of making,

an appearance in the AP college football poll thanks to Fox’s College Football.
