Agreed. We didn't win it - just leave it vacant and move on. Anyone that watched the AU and USC games knows that USC wasn't that much better if they were at all but there's nothing anyone can do about it now.
Respect to you and Lanier.
I also disagree with any Bama fan claiming 1941 because it "makes up" for 1966. Anyone can claim they had the best team in a given year, and make a reasonable argument and I'll listen to it. But to call yourselves "National Champions" meant you won or were awarded a CHAMPIONSHIP (not necessarily a championship game, but a title based on SOME sort of criteria). The polls have all sorts of flaws, and many teams have been awarded championships when they were less deserving than another team, but that doesn't mean the other team was the "national champions".
God, I wish we would remove 41. That is a joke, and it makes it that much harder to have a reasonable discussion of the other years.

So a fan of a school that doubled their claimed number of national championships in one afternoon back in the early 1980's respects somebody else not claiming similar fake arse, bogus titles. This actually makes sense to a bammer tard. Just curious, but how much merchandise do you own celebrating the bogus national championships bammer claims?
