re: Will the AP be the only poll next year?

What does seem pretty obvious, though, is that the Coaches’ Poll won’t be tied to the championship like in the BCS era. The Coaches have a deal with the BCS where they always vote the winner of the BCS Championship Game No. 1 in the final poll. That requirement will go away. So the AFCA National Championship Trophy (Coaches’ Trophy) will no longer be tied to the FBS Tournament Champion

So does this mean the coaches trophy will be its own separate entity sort of how the AP trophy has unofficially been since '03? That should be interesting.
