Not surprisingly, you didn't look very hard:
People tend to overlook the fact that schools like LSU, Arkansas, A&M and others had great seasons that were ignored back in the day. There was a tremendous bias against Southern teams and that lasted well into the 70s.
The main reason the Ivy League, which had been the gold standard of college football, opted to switch to the FCS (and doesn't even play in the FCS tourney) is that they realized they simply could not compete with the growing powers in the South.

It is why teams like Notre Dame were always hated. The media from large cities always sided with them when it came to selecting the national champion.
