If the basis for claiming 2004 is USC's cheat mess,


The basis, as stated in the op, were undefeated seasons and at least one selector deciding so.

How did they get "jobbed"?

They were #3.

#1 and #2 played to a tie.

How does that make #3 better than either of them?



Because they were the only undefeated untied team! FURTHER. Notre Dame and Michigan State both failed to play in a bowl game

Becuase Bama was back-to back defending national champions, went undefeated, crushed their bowl opponent Nebraska while ND and Sparty wound up with a tie

If they're going to do this, they should just add the old ones. Seems dumb to add championships for years where people can remember you not winning the championship.

Ftr, 1913, 1983, and 2004 are nobrainers. Unlike mny of the titles Bama claims, AU has a stronger claim in each one of those years than any other team in the given yr.

Wrong again. Read the link I just posted, that's the latest NCAA FBS record (s) book.

You're talking about 66, right? Michigan State and Notre Dame both declined to play in a bowl game, how lame is that?

yes you are. Each of those years has selectors for Auburn. The problem with your link is it is only selectors that the NCAA has said are more popular selectors and does not include all .

It's NCAA football, not NYCAuburn football.
And if you really want to get down to it...
