You seem awful upset considering the hardware you mentioned.

Take '64 or '65, we'll take the other. Everyone knows '66 is yours, direct your anger that way.

Your the one who brought it up originally. There's no reason to shake your head or argue about it. The AP & and UPI both awarded us their national championship trophies. Those wire services are as legit as it gets. It's ours and there is nothing you can say or argue that will undo what was done.

If you want to claim '64 for yourself because the FWAA then by means do so. I couldn't care less.

Even if we hadn't been robbed by the refs on the goal line and beat Texas in the Orange Bowl you'd still say Alabama didn't deserve the national title.
