North Carolina men, Stanford women lead Golfweek/Sagarin college golf team rankings

Following college golf has been difficult this fall.

However, that doesn’t mean there’s not a ranking out to determine which teams have been the strongest through the first few weeks of the season.

The Golfweek/Sagarin ranking is the only men’s and women’s college golf ranking this fall. And this week, the latest update saw a new pair of teams, albeit familiar names, take the top spots on both sides.

For the men, it’s the North Carolina Tar Heels taking the top spot from Auburn. On the women’s side, Stanford has slid up in front of Arkansas for the No. 1 position.

Here’s a look at the men’s and women’s top 25 as of Oct. 16.
