Again, if that is the criteria then why are all the others that qualify missing?
Here's page 112:
NATIONAL POLL RANKINGS

The criteria for being included in this historical list of poll selectors is that the poll be national in scope, either through distribution in newspaper, television, radio and/or computer online. The list includes both former selectors, who were instrumental in the sport of college football, and selectors who were among the Bowl
Championship Series (BCS) selectors.

#Did not compile final ranking after the bowl games so it is not included on the year-by-year listings.
^The AFCA Trophy is traditionally given to the national champion of the coaches’ poll but in 2016, the AFCA retroactively awarded a national championship
trophy for the 1945 season. The coaches polls were the UPI poll (1950-1990), the USA Today/CNN poll (1991-1996), the USA Today/ESPN poll (1997-
2004), the USA Today poll (2005-2014) and the USA Today/Amway poll (2014-present)

Ok then recognizing doesn't mean shite, and quoting that the NCAA recognizes them is worthless.
Dude, maybe stop looking for so much meaning in a ball game.
quote:
according to your claims, we can't define what a legitimate national championship is anymore.
There you go again...
My claim is that the system we have in place now isn't nearly as ambiguous as it used to be. Can teams like UCF still claim titles? Sure, but people will point and laugh because it's stupid in light of the recent rules for the CFB playoffs - just like when people pointed and laughed at Tulane's 1998 claim when the BCS was in place.

Once again, they just put whatever people want in that.
You seem to be ignoring how people actually use this list to justify their schools claims, when all it does is list those claims.

So people making up bogus claims, that's not looking for meaning from a ball game, but the person who says they aren't legit is?

They are laughed at because they are bullshite claims.

Yea well, the Rasmussen and Lichtenhouse polls voted UGA as national champion a couple of times, but we don’t claim them.

Not only did I not say anything like that, I didn't even imply as much.
I'm not sure what your agenda is, but it seems to be clouding your reasoning.

Yes, just like Alabama's acknowledging Houlgate's 1941 award. It's an actual award, but it's still bullshite. I look at it this way, the University of Alabama is not technically wrong for acknowledging the 1941 title, but they are petty for doing it.
But big deal. I mean after all, who the frick really cares? State fans? Auburn fans?

No agenda, it's just a matter of what is and isn't legit.

Sure, teams can claim whatever they want. You're moving the goal posts here a bit. But if people are going to use something like the NCAA as justification, then it should be a system with actual guidelines. If it's just a list of what people claim, then it's not a valid indicator of legitimate national championships.

He doesn't care. All he cares about is that ad revenue.
