That wreaks of the loser mentality that permeates throughout Starkville. Great moral victory though

What is debatable about the NCAA recognizing Ole Miss as a national champion?

Other schools make the same claim. The NCAA only recognizes 1960. However, they also recognize Minnesota as champions that year, and they were #1 in the AP and Coaches polls while OM only held the top in the FWAA. As you well know, the national champion is much like the highlander, there can only be one. Anyone who claims otherwise can take their bitch arse back to the soccer field.

Honestly, any title named by a poll and not a game is debatable IMO, but certainly any title that was not unanimous. I'm not making the case that it isn't recognized or that it wasn't a deserving team, only that one could debate it's worth.
