College Cheerleader of the Week: Offseason Week 1

Presented by Epson

EDITOR'S NOTE: The College Cheerleader of the Week: Offseason photo gallery is posted every Monday for your viewing pleasure. Voting for each week ends Monday at noon EST.

Voting results: Kansas 3 - 48%; Illinois - 15%; Kansas 4 - 12%; Connecticut - 4%; Kansas 2 - 3%; six cheerleaders with 2%; Georgia - 1%; Boston College - 1%
Total votes: 11,369

After 20 weeks of voting for various college cheerleaders from across the country, you picked a winner in last week's championship round, Laura Cole from the University of Arkansas. Whomever your favorite was during the tournament, you can't deny how a playoff format would benefit college football, as we've advocated on SPiN for the past two years.

The college football season might have been over since the first week of the month, but the College Cheerleader of the Week feature isn't done yet. For the next six weeks, I'll be posting photos of cheerleaders that didn't make it in the regular season, all for different reasons:

1. Their school already won a particular regular season week, thus eliminating every other cheerleader that came after her. (Having two cheerleaders from the same school voted into the playoffs would be problematic and unrealistic.)

2. The photos were taken during the college football bowl season, which took place at the same time as the College Cheerleader of the Week Playoffs.

We'll go through this in alphabetical order, from Air Force to Wisconsin.

The rules? Since the regular season and playoffs were all for fun, the offseason is an even more casual affair since no titles are awarded after six weeks. So just pick your favorite and have fun.

Voting for this week's crop of photos ends on Monday, Feb. 4 at noon EST. Official results will be posted shortly after the polls close.
