Doesn't stop USCw from claiming 2003.
But apparently AP voters opinion is worth more than everyone else's

Auburn has only themselves to blame for not getting in the BCSNCG. The Citadel is a powerhouse and so were the rest of their non-conference opponents.

I think Oklahoma would have a greater claim than AU does.

Give it to Arkansas.. Close as they will ever come.

I can't remember who backed out of that game at the last moment that forced us to schedule the Citadel but our hands were tied with that decision.

Because of us and what happened in 04 we are getting the playoff system which is good enough for me.
Actually that has more to do with 2011.

seriously, there is not a Champ for that year. AU finished #2, with USC vacated that only leaves AU at the top. Its the only other one i think we have a legit claim to. Curious to what rant thinks
Only vacated by the NCAA. They don't not have they ever awarded a Nc.

They at least qualified for the title game.

The three way undefeated tie in 04 got the ball rolling.

NCAA never awarded them...the BCS vacated it.

Titles are awarded after the season ends, not during.

I'm sure most people, including Auburn fans, think AU shouldn't claim 2004.
Agree

I might have a problem with how they arrived at 1 and 2 to play in that game...but it happened. I think it was a raw deal, but we should absolutely not claim that title...ever.
