The TCU Horned Frogs entered the 2022 season without a single vote in the preseason AP Poll and ended the campaign ranked #2 in the final ballot, following a trip to the National Championship Game. However, given that the Frogs were walloped in said game and have since lost many of the key contributors that brought TCU to such a lofty standing a season ago, the Frogs will again begin a trek towards the top of the ranking. The voters of the AP Poll have followed in the footsteps of the Coaches Poll in appreciating that TCU has reloaded to bring in a Top 20 squad for 2023, but there is little belief that the Frogs can replicate the 2022 magic, placing the Frogs at 17th overall with seven voters omitting TCU from their ballot.
