Trois sondages relatifs à la saison 2016 de Division 1 FBS (Football Bowl Subdivision) de football américain universitaire sont reconnus par la NCAA même si de nombreux autres sondages sont publiés dans divers médias. Contrairement à la plupart des autres sports, l'organe directeur de la NCAA ne décerne pas un titre de champion national au terme de la saison régulière. Ce titre est décerné par une ou plusieurs agences de sondages (les polls) ce qui explique que par le passé plusieurs équipes différentes pouvaient être déclarées championnes pour une même saison. Deux des principaux organismes de sondage, l'AP Poll et le Coaches'Poll, commencent à publier leurs classements avant le début de la saison et le font ensuite après chaque semaine de compétition.

Depuis la saison 2014, un 3^e classement est réalisé à partir de la mi-saison (après la 8^e semaine de compétition) : le College Football Playoff (CFP)[1].

La saison régulière sera, pour la 3^e année consécutive, suivie d'un système de playoffs regroupant quatre équipes. Ce système remplace l'ancien système du BCS Bowl Championship Series.

Après la dernière semaine de saison régulière (le 6 décembre 2016), le comité du CFP dévoilera le classement final de la Div. 1 du FBS. Ce classement détermine les quatre équipes qui participeront aux playoffs menant à la grande finale nationale du 9 janvier 2017 au Raymond James Stadium de Tampa en Floride. Il désigne également les équipes qui participeront aux 4 autres bowls majeurs n'accueillant pas les demi-finales du CFP[2].
