And anything from 98-13 other than the BCS winner doesn't matter either.
Yet some people don't get that.
Well that's completely different. The BCS was a system everyone agreed to play under with a trophy everyone agreed to play for. There was nothing like that prior (the Bowl Coalition and Bowl Alliance didn't have participation from the Big 10/Pac 12/Rose Bowl).

You're saying the same thing I am.
My point was that people generally count AP/Coaches titles from the 30s (or whenever the hell it is) til 97, because those were the authorities. 98-13, teh BCS was the one and only authority. Yet some people still think USC was a "national champion" in 03 when they absolutely in no way were. Very big gripe of mine.
