Lets look at the current (AP) top 10 rankings and the states the schools are located in and how they match-up with the last election.
1. Clemson (South Caroline), Won by Trump
2. Oklahoma, Won by Trump
3. Georgia Won by Trump
4 Alabama, Won by Trump
5. Ohio State (Ohio) Won by Trump
6. Wisconsin, Won by Trump
7. Auburn (Alabama), Won by Trump
8. USC (California), Won by Clinton
9. Penn State (Pennsylvania) Won by Trump
10. UCF (Florida) Won by Trump.

It would be an interesting stat as to how this year compares to, say, the past 40 years..
