Wow! I was expecting this thread to turn into another UA/AU slugfest. Boy was I thrown a curve ball when it turned UA/LSU!


No slugfest man, the conversation has been pretty good. Hopefully it won't degenerate into a flame war...we'll see.

The 25, 26, and 30 ones are recognized by the NCAA.

You're really pulling out that old shite? Why don't you point out every other team that had any polls retroactively award a Title. We aren't the only ones

Ah that's where you are partially wrong. It's popular to try and tear down Bamas claims, but nobody ever does it to the other schools that claim Titles in the same manner. That's singling Bama out

Recognized by and awarded by aren't the same thing...just an FYI, maybe not to you but to those who don't know better.

Okay, let's start there...this is perception. Again, if there were regualr UM, ND, OU USC, etc posters in SEC blogs who, let us say, claimed 15 NC's...well and good. If they qualified this with "and you also must accept this", I have no doubt they would be responded to in like manner. Do you disagree?

If we just claimed Titles left and right like some people have convinced themselves we do, there are 2 other undefeated/untied seasons

I will say that UT is way worse than Bama though, they claim 4 bs titles.

On here? I dunno. But going by what ive seen on other boards like rivals for example, no it doesn't happen. I have NEVER seen anyone pick apart their claims like they do ours. If it would happen here I would pay to see it

If this is the case, then I would suggest Alabama is the enemy of ButthurtNation..consider the audience and forget them I say.

"what reasons do you use to justify why your team deserves it more?"

We're always almost there. I think we are just due to win a big title at some point because we keep getting so close. we deserve a title run similar to bama's recent one.

Whatever fricking "system" was being used


There was no system. That's the point.

If you take away Alabamas 4 Rose Bowl teams, you have to take away every single one claimed. Any pre poll Title. That includes usc, michigan, notre damn, etc. You can't single out Alabama


Ok, thats fine

That's just not true.

Alabama people have a persecution complex.
