The fact that we haven't had a new champ in nearly 30 years is just an indication of how boring and top-heavy CFB has become.

Look at the 80s. All those different, new teams.

We have a few come close to getting their first title.

1999 Virginia Tech
2010 Oregon
2014 Oregon

These 3 played in either a BCS or CFP playoff National Championship Game.

I think it was 1988 West Virginia played against Notre Dame in a bowl and had they won, they would have won the natty.

In 1965, Arkansas lost to LSU in the Cotton Bowl. They may have been voted #1 in the polls with a win. They claim one from 1964, but were not #1 in a poll.
