re: Alabama with only 8 NC's

I looked up another year, 1973, that bama claims due to a "major poll" (this is getting kinda fun).

Notre Dame, Ohio state, Michigan, OU, and PSU all finished undefeated. 5 teams with no loss.

Bama lost a game. To Notre Dame who was 11-0.

This is the year that was such an embarrassment to college football that the voting and polls were changed immediately. So, even though it was hugely embarrassing to everyone, Bama still ignorantly claims they were a champion that year. Sorta funny, but typical I suppose.
