Our last national title in football was 1950.

Why do Kentucky fans think they have a claim to this


Really. I mean, State has no claim to any, but UK was awarded the 1950 NC retroactively in 2004 by Sagarin's computer poll.

The argument was that great teams can beat someone twice. LSU could not beat Alabama twice in 2011. Therefore, 2011 LSU was not a great team and not worthy of claiming a championship.

Switch LSU and Alabama in the above argument and share your position: A) beating someone twice is really difficult or B) 2011 Alabama is not worthy of claiming a championship.

Was the 1996 Florida Gator team not worthy of claiming a championship because they couldn't beat FSU twice that season, even though they whupped 'em in the BCA (pre-cursor to the BCS) Championship Game?

We won a flag football natty back in the late 90's (my college days). I still remember nailing that blonde at midfield once the lights were turned off.

It was THE GAME

I'm pretty sure that is what they were calling the game LSU won....until they won it. Or until Bama lost it?

Bama was the better team that year

This thread taught me that Bama should have won both games if they wanted to convince the masses that they are the better team.

So you're saying that the "champion" isn't always the best team?
