The first Amway Coaches Poll of the college football season has been released and there’s an Arizona college team on the list.

The Arizona Wildcats received two votes in the poll.

Rich Rodriguez’s team was recently picked to finish last in the Pac-12 South, but that didn’t stop someone from voting for the Wildcats in the Top 25 poll.

Rodriguez does have a vote in the poll, but each coaches’ vote has not been released.
