You can't just claim a year if you didn't even get a selection in the records book. Literally no one does that.

Kansas had a kickazz football program 107 years ago. They went unbeaten, no championship awarded because they were a Midwest team and were not considered to be on the same level as Yale and Princeton...

I'm not mad. This isn't going to turn you into a better program than we are. Its just funny they would make a trophy when a national champion trophy was never awarded them

I don't care about the 5th down because Mizzou suked that year anyway.

Kentucky should by all rights have it, but it was such a different world back then. Bowls didn't count, and that's why it is the Sooners and not Kentuckys

I'm not making a case. A case can be made, but I don't care. I'm not thumping my chest about something that happened nearly a century ago.

They could've at least been subtle about the fake trophy and not made it look like the actual Coaches trophy. Jeez.

OK that just looks bad and is an obvious historical anachronism.

It's not even the actual Sugar Bowl trophy either.

The NCAA believes the FWAA holds enough weight to recognize it so I'd say it's a legit title claim.


It's a legit claim. The NCAA recognizes it so who cares what some random on this board thinks.

Why are SEC teams becoming obsessed with adding to their "tradition"?

Because it's true? The FWAA was treated equally to the AP and Coaches up until the 70s.
