1950 in Canadian football

The Hamilton Tigers and the Hamilton Wildcats merged to form the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. The Regina franchise officially changed their name to become the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Saturday, April 1.

The WIFU allowed the third place team in the standings to be qualified for a playoff berth. The first professional playoff game was played at night under lights – Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the Edmonton Eskimos. The 38th Grey Cup, nicknamed "The Mud Bowl", was held at Toronto's Varsity Stadium with an attendance of 27,101.

The Argonauts defeated Winnipeg in what is now known simply as the ‘Mud Bowl’.

NOTE: During this time most players played both ways, so the All-Star selections do not distinguish between some offensive and defensive positions.
