You can say over and over again that Florida will win the National Championship game, but statistics go against this.
The text below gives the year, #1 preseason team of that year, the national champions of that year, and where the preseason #1 team ended up (which is based on the USA Today Poll). Here are the last seven years of College Football rankings:
Year-----#1 Preseason Team-----National Champion-----Where the Preseason #1 Team ended up
2002-----Miami-----------------------Ohio State-----------------------------#2
2003-----Oklahoma------------------LSU-------------------------------------#3
2004-----USC-------------------------USC-------------------------------------#1
2005-----USC-------------------------Texas-----------------------------------#2
2006-----Ohio State-----------------Florida----------------------------------#2
2007-----USC-------------------------LSU--------------------------------------#2
2008-----Georgia---------------------Florida---------------------------------#10
In the last seven years, there has never been a repeating National Champion Team. USC had two Heisman players, and they couldn't even accomplish that feat. Also, the only #1 Preseason Team that has won a national championship was USC in 2004.
