NCAA Division I college soccerkicks offon Thursday,and2023 champs FSUare leading the preseason charge.
After this summer’smass exodusfrom the Pac-12, three of the four remaining Power conferences — the ACC, Big Ten, and SEC — all added strong soccer programs to the mix. Each of those three conferences is now set to start the season with sevenranked teams, according to the United Soccer Coaches' Top-25 preseason poll.
ACC, Big Ten dominate college soccer rankings
Highlighted by No. 1 FSU and No. 2 Stanford,the newly restructured ACC is shaping up to be the conference to beat.With the country's top recruiting class plus 10 returning players, including sophom*ore strikerJordynn Dudley, FSU is back atop the preseason rankings for the fourth time in the last six seasons.
Led by No. 4 Penn State, the Big Ten also boasts top contenders — especially after adding UCLA (No. 11) and USC (No. 23) to the fold.
With the addition of Texas at No. 17, the SEC has a solid foundation. However, with no schools ranked higher than No. 14 Georgia, they’ll need some standout non-conference wins to move up the weekly poll.
While the Big 12 has just two squads on the list, both cracked the Top 10, with2023 College Cupsemifinalist BYU coming in at No. 3 and Texas Tech tied for No. 8.
Anson Dorrance departs UNC
NCAA soccer's biggest roster shiftcomes via the UNC coaching staff, with head coach Anson Dorranceannouncing his departurefrom the program just four days before the season's start. After 45 seasons and21 national titles— the most by a head coach in any DI sport — the Tar Heels manager passed the reins to associate head coach Damon Nahas, who will serve in an interim capacity as the school conducts a hiring search.
Dorrance is just the latest in a series ofUNC turnovers, which saw nine 2023 players transfer and 11 turn pro — including top NWSL draft picksAlly Sentnor and Savy King.
How to watch college soccer this season
Four ranked matchups headline Thursday’s DI season opener, with No. 8 Texas Tech vs. No. 4 Penn State and No. 13 Michigan State vs. No. 15 Notre Dame leading the pack. Both games kick off at 7 PM ET with live coverage onBTNandACCNX, respectively.

Sealing the deal for the Current was Brazil Olympic roster snubDebinha, whose 77th-minute goal shot her to the top the Cup’s Golden Bootleaderboard.
In the East Coast vs. West Coast semifinal, Gotham FC beat Angel City 1-0 behind midfielder Delanie Sheehan's 48th-minute goal.
