I saw. It was also said like this, if I were to say about your 83... yeah.. yall were awarded by some small little poll somewhere, even thought most of the country believed someone else was better, yeah, yall should be able to claim it.

The cool part about this is that outside of all our bitching, Auburn doesn't claim 1983 in any way, so you can belittle our non-national championship all you want. We just bitch about it because we had a tie for best record and had by far the toughest schedule. And we dominated the common opponents category with Miami.

At any rate, I gave Alabama due credit for 1973 while saying that the system was inherently flawed because Notre Dame didn't get the UPI poll. That's the truth.
