AP *and* Coaches.

In the 1990s, you had those two polls split on three different occasions.

1990
Colorado: 11-1-1 (AP)
Georgia Tech: 11-0-1 (Coaches)

1991
Miami: 12-0 (AP)
Washington: 12-0 (Coaches)

1997
Michigan: 12-0 (AP)
Nebraska: 13-0 (Coaches)

The split championships of 1990 and 1991 directly led to the creation of the Bowl Championship Series and its predecessors.
