If they were not at least willing to claim them...why discuss them?
Some people want to "claim" some. Most I know don't. That is why it will be discussed. People are making a mountain out of a molehill. I have always thought that Auburn should "claim" 1913 and 1914. Auburn took the stance that they would only "claim" NC's from AP and UPI. It will be discussed. I doubt anything will change. Those teams will continue to be "recognized" as NC's.

Certainly some of those years were very impressive, and I could easily see why Auburn would want to claim them. I wish, though, that there were more definite ways to determine NC's.
Seems counterproductive to have 3-4 teams claiming to be National Champion of one year. (Not that I know of this occurring, but you get what I mean)
