The AP revealed the first-ever preseason Top 25 rankings ahead of the 1950 NCAA season. Notre Dame led that poll, followed by No. 2 Army, No. 3 Michigan, No. 4 Tennessee, and No. 5 Texas. Oklahoma, ranked No. 6 that preseason, won the national championship.

The Florida Gators have a really hard schedule, so a playoff berth is hard to envision. On the other hand, they have, as one insider put it, maybe the best quarterback in football, so that might make it easier to envision.
