As for 2004, there is no champion from that year currently recognized and Auburn is the only undefeated team from that year...so why not.


Oklahoma is also undefeated, as USC had to forfeit the game. That's not the same as vacate.

USC vacated that game. There hasn't been any forfeiting since Alabama for the 93 season.

Nope, it wasn't a forfeit. The game was vacated. Just like all those mid-2000's Bama "wins".

The penalties include the loss of 30 football scholarships over three years and vacating 14 victories in which Bush played from December 2004 through the 2005 season.


So not only does Oklahoma still have a loss that year, its a pretty damned embarrassing loss.
