Tiffin University took the top spot as the conference announced the Great Midwest Athletic Conference Spring Football Preseason Coaches Poll presented by Under Armour. 

Tiffin went out of the 2019 season under head coach Cris Reisert on top of the conference standings and still retains that title of defending league champion.

The Dragons earned their place in the NCAA Championship bracket and figure to carry over a number of explosive offensive weapons back in the fold.
 
Tiffin was picked by the coaches to finish on top, though the margin was close. The Dragons earned 34 total points in the balloting along with four first-place votes.

The Dragons won the 2019 GMAC Championship with a 7-0 conference record (9-2 overall) and made their first NCAA Championships appearance in program history. The team also posted back-to-back nine-win seasons for just the second time in program history (2006, 07). 
 
Two other programs received first-place votes including Findlay (2) and Ohio Dominican (1). The Oilers are guided by head coach Rob Keys and were the official preseason coaches poll runner-up with 28 total points. Ohio Dominican was close behind with 26. Hillsdale was picked fourth with 25 points.

Seven teams are in the mix for a spring conference championship trophy, which is determined by the final regular season standings. The originally scheduled fall season of 2020 was delayed and pushed back to the spring due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
That being said, it will be an unconventional playing season with no NCAA Championship and no bid into what would have been the second edition of the America's Crossroads Bowl hosted by Hobart, Ind., against a Great Lakes Valley Conference opponent.
