Time is past due to identify the teams in the AP preseason football poll that failed to be in the final poll. The previous two seasons 9 teams that were ranked in the preseason ended not ranked. This past season they AP did no better 9 teams ended up not ranked. Below is a list of the Not Ranked and the teams that ended up ranked after being not ranked. Since we had only four entries it was easy to score and we had a 3 way tie for first; ISC, NCHawker, and myself tied with guessing 5 of the 9 not ranked teams.

Not Ranked
Oklahoma
South Carolina
Stanford
Louisiana State
Notre Dame
Texas A&M
Nebraska
North Carolina
Washington

Not Ranked to Ranked
TCU
Georgia Tech
Mississippi State
Boise State
Arizona
Utah
Marshall
Louisville
Memphis
