It's more schools than people think because some of these school's titles are old as hell. Most of the titles to qualify for football are claimed from the 50's or earlier.

In the end they all count the same in the record books, but something to be said about UF winning multiples in both in the modern era of college athletics.

Really impressive when you consider how inept the UAA has been

Show me the AP trophy you have. Otherwise, it’s not legit.

the posters crying about the legit Arkansas football natty in 1964 are always the posters with the most inferiority complex

It’s Alabama’s’64 championship that isn’t legit.

Arkansas went 11-0, Bama lost their bowl.

AP voted before the bowl.


Sorry, but the simple fact is that you don't have a wire service national championship. So if that is the criteria... Arkansas does not have one in football. .

If FWAA championships are included in the criteria.... You certainly do have one.

That was terrible. I remember being down in Florida on vacation the year after that wearing an OSU shirt and everyone just kept calling me Gator Bait.

That's a cool trick. I'm pretty sure the NCAA did not have a basketball championship until 1939.

Shouldn’t LSU be on this list? I think they won one with Shaq


Unfortunately we never have won the NCAAT. We actually didn’t even make the Sweet 16 with Shaq. We have made 4 final 4s but have never advanced to the championship game. I’m still sad we overlooked UCLA in the 2006 final 4 because an LSU-Florida rematch in the natty would have been epic.

The utter stupidity of awarding the championship to a bowl loser broke the AP. That was the last year they awarded the championship before the result of the bowl games.

An in-year #1 ranking has about as much validity as a preseason #1 ranking, lol

Alabama about to join this group once we figure out how to get NBA rostered athletes to show up next month.

Well, that's because they don't have one in football.

Aggies haven’t won either in the modern era.

The irony of Bama fans arguing the legitimacy of college football championships isn’t lost on me

All of you claiming Arkansas’s 1964 title is illegitimate can officially quit claiming any All American or Freshman All-American players from your team. Plus any Outland or Nagurski Trophy winners, among others. Apparently they are illegitimate.

The FWAA awards all those honors, just like when they voted Arkansas #1 in1964. AFTER the damn bowl games. Good grief.

That UF football team was mean, man. They were hungry so I give them a ton of credit. OSU was fat and lazy. The basketball title wasn’t a surprise. Florida was returning every starter from the season before and OSU had very good freshmen but the outside shooters were not very good. Final fours are what basketball teams are remembered for anyways. The football team flat out quit and that was on Tressel

So in your feeble mind all national championships prior to 1965 are illegitimate. You’ve got to be one of the most ignorant people on this site.

Yeah, this is a record/factoid that I'm actually jealous of (championships in football and basketball).

This will be the year that by some crazy happenstance we manage to pull it off, and then it will get stripped by the NCAA because Charles Bediako played that one game against Tennessee.

If it’s not recognized then why does the ncaa list it? The Grantland Rice championship holds more prestige than a bunch of reporters.
