they are going to replace the $30,000.00 Crystal Ball and replace it with a simple $199.00 piece of crap you can get from Trophy City.

quote:Bama has 4 - 3 BCS and 1 Bowl Coalition for 1992.
So Bama will always have more crystal balls than EVERYONE.
According to this Bama could ask for 4 more that they won before the trophy was given out, 1961, 64, 73, and 79.
quote:
In 2009, the AFCA issued the trophy to schools whose teams were voted number one by the Coaches' Poll in years before the trophy was first issued in 1986. Through the 1973 season, the final Coaches' Poll was released in early December, after the regular season, but before the bowl games. Beginning with the 1974 season, the Coaches' Poll would conduct its final poll after the bowl games.

Go ahead and give all semifinalists a trophy just for making it

Fixed that for you. But actually I would imagine the winner of the coaches poll will still be awarded the crystal ball trophy so conceivably some team could still catch up with Alabama in the future, although it's not likely.
Well I said LSU cause if Florida wins it this year they will have 4 like Bama.... So no... You didn't FIFM.

It is a great trophy. They look cool in the cases in Gainesville.
Almost as good as the 1984 SEC title one.

Damn, that sucks...pretty cool trophy, too.

This is a real shame. The crystal ball trophy is unique and very cool looking, and I have no confidence they will come up w/ anything good. Glad Auburn got one (unless of course we get another one this season 
)
