This market will resolve "Yes" if the listed team is ranked #1 on the AP top 25 College Football Poll during any gameweek of the 2026-27 season, preseason polls do not count. Otherwise this market will resolve "No". This market does not count any other ranking sources such as other power rankings or CFP rankings. The primary resolution source for this market will be the AP News Top 25 College Football Poll (https://apnews.com/hub/ap-top-25-college-football-poll), however a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.Ohio State holds the top spot in most 2026 preseason polls, including the Coaches Poll, after finishing 12-2 with a dominant Big Ten regular season in 2025. Oregon, Georgia, Texas, and Notre Dame follow closely, buoyed by strong 2025 records and returning production. Key factors shaping early trader views include Ohio State’s defensive depth despite NFL departures, Oregon’s offensive continuity under its coaching staff, Georgia’s SEC pedigree, Texas’s elite 2026 recruiting class, and Notre Dame’s independent schedule strength. Recent roster developments, transfer portal activity, and spring practice reports continue to refine perceptions ahead of Week 1 kickoffs in early September, when initial AP and Coaches Poll updates will provide the first major test of preseason positioning.
