We keep saying this, but no one listens. Just take a gander at the title claims by Notre Dame and Michigan.
And OSU. Alabama shares the 1961 title with OSU (off the FWAA poll), even though 'Bama won the AP/UPI that year. But then again, UA claimed the 1941 title off the Houlgate poll, sooooooo...
With that being said, if it wasn't for that 1941 title, no one would be giving 'Bama shite for its titles.

Isn't the real reason that title isn't legit is because Alabama failed to win the SEC in 1941? How can you claim the National Championship if you couldn't win your own conference?

I don't agree. 1973 and either 1978 or 1979 were pretty much bullshite, and for that matter, so was 1964.
