Yes I know the polls are taken before the bowls but I also don't give a shite about a championship 30 years before I was born.

So Scoreboard bitches.

Maybe. We make fun of North Carolina for claiming helms titles when they advertise how many titles they have. But the topic of this thread was pointless titles.

Maybe but they seem to have shook free from the fake classes without missing a beat. What was the deal with Bear Bryant at UK? Howd you get him and lose him?

Didn't you have some senator or something try to claim a bunch of Auburn championships recently?

Georgia retroactively claimed 1


LINK

quote:

In 1942, Georgia Bulldogs were the national champions, defeating UCLA in the Rose Bowl on January 1, 1943. Nine ranking authorities listed in the NCAA record books listed the Bulldogs as #1. Ohio State was crowned #1 in the final AP Poll at the end of November, but did not make a bowl appearance. At the time, the AP poll did not put out a post-bowl poll.


Ohio State can go frick themselves. Play a bowl game, pussies.

Georgia hasn’t retroactively claimed any, but they probably should. They could certainly stake claims to ‘27, and ‘46.

In ‘46 they were the only unbeaten, untied team in the country and of the three teams named champs by at least one major poll, Georgia was the only one to win its bowl game.

Umm the school didn’t claim ‘42 until the 80s, that is retroactively claiming...did you attend UGA?

Tennessee has more of a claim to 1950 than UK or OU. If we take everything into account that wasn’t in 1950, I have no problem with Tennessee having it over OU. UT handed UK its only loss. UK won the SEC by virtue of having one more SEC win but both had one loss. UT beat UK which beat OU. UT also finished higher in both polls.

The time machine is the sip’s best friend. It comforts them when they are frustrated about present day.

I would be frustrated too if I knew the best home game any year will be whatever SEC team I can get on the schedule

Legit being AP, UP


You need to clarify your rationale here because MANY Auburn and LSU fans will tell you that AP/UP NCs are not legit...sometimes. They have special arguments that change each year and will let you know if the claim is legit through a committee vote.

Bonus points were awarded for trolling aggy, which is very very easy i might add, but that was not the sole purpose of this thread.
