# 2001–02 NCAA Division I men's ice hockey rankings

Two human polls made up the 2001–02 NCAA Division I men's ice hockey rankings, the USCHO.com Division I Men's Poll and the USA TODAY/American Hockey Magazine Poll. As the 2001–02 season progressed, rankings were updated weekly. There were a total of 19 voters in the USA Today poll and 40 voters in the USCHO.com poll. Each first place vote in either poll is worth 15 points in the rankings with every subsequent vote worth 1 fewer point.
