The AP voters continue to recognize Ohio State even though they are on probation. Highly doubtful, but there is still talk of a split NC based on what happens in the BCSNC game by some of the media mouths that have a vote. Is the poll no longer needed and should the AP even be recognized any longer since it is not part of the BCS poll process?

No, it is not relevant.

Why would you forsake the vehicle that robbed so many deserving teams of National Championships in favor of the Crimson Tide. Shame on you.

He has a point. If the AP is irrelevant, there goes half of Alabama's titles

The same question will be asked about conference championship games in a few years.

The irony of this post is awesome.

Alabama fan questioning the legitimacy of recognizing titles.

Pretty week response for a valid point. I see no reason why Bama should disregard the AP.

Doesn't matter. The National champ goes home with a big arse trophy, does USC have the trophy from 04? Didn't think so.

It's only relevant when it's the only leg Bama has to claim a NC.

Well, at least they still have their Rose Bowl titles to hold on too.

Missed the point, y'all. Is the AP poll still relevant? Meaning, of course it was when we won our first 27 national championships.

I ask a simple opinion question if the AP is needed any longer based on the BCS now having nothing to do with the AP, yet what I get are dumb comments from a bunch of arse hurt 3rd graders. Amazing...

Oh there we go. I was so looking forward to getting called butt hurt in this thread, and was starting to get disappointed.

Only to teams on probation that can't participate in post season play.

It has become something of a booby prize - something teams that are not good enough/eligible for the BCS title hope for. Once the playoogs start, it will be the nail in the coffin.
