Arkansas may have been more deserving if the format was post-bowl results. Arkansas was just unfortunate. Alabama is king of 1964.

Programs that have a legit gripe for a national championship in years past:

1938 Tennessee
1940 Tennessee
1942 Georgia
1945 Georgia
1946 Army
1947 Michigan
1949 Oklahoma
1950 Tennessee
1952 Georgia Tech
1954 Oklahoma
1960 Missouri
1964 Arkansas
1965 Arkansas
1966 Alabama
1968 Penn State
1969 Penn State
1973 Penn State
1975 Arizona State
1977 Alabama
1978 Oklahoma
1983 Auburn
1984 Florida
1984 Washington
1985 Florida
1993 Auburn
1994 Penn State
1996 Ohio State
2004 Auburn
2007 Georgia
2007 Kansas
2011 Oklahoma State

1950 Kentucky (11-1) defeated #1 Oklahoma (10-1) in the Sugar Bowl which took Kentucky over Tennessee (11-1) because Coach Bryant guaranteed them that he would beat Oklahoma.

Kentucky played FOUR non-1A teams in 1950 and lost to the only 1A team (Tennessee) they played with a winning record. I don't know why in hell Coach Bryant thought he could beat Oklahoma. And then did it!
