Delusion starts at the top, at the AD level, with these kinds of decisions. It then trickles down to the coaches. This is were the gimmicks come in that allow delusion to trickle down further to: the fans. This is how we ended up with a summer of Phat fricking Phil threads.

I think his point being some of those titles didnt include "crystal balls". It looks like they've won 6 since the inception of the Bowl coalition/BCS which started in the early 90's when crystal footballs first started being awarded.

You would have a point except they didn't make fake trophies for 25/26/30/34/41.

They have a Rose Bowl trophy for 25, 26 (Stanford also got one for the tie), 30, and 34. They also have the Rissman (later renanmed the Rockne Memorial) trophy for 34. They have a Cotton Bowl trophy for 41.

Pretty sly. Recruits won't know the difference.

They have trophies for their 'claimed' championships and banners hung in the stadium.

Trophies they were actually awarded. Do you see any crystal footballs before 92?

If they're keeping their 1992, we're keeping ours. I don't make the rules.

Bama doesn't have any trophies for specific awards that they didn't win.
There is no crystal football for 1965 or '78 even though Bama won national championships in both years. Because the championships they won weren't the Coaches poll.

The crystal football has been awarded since 1986. Bama won the Coaches poll in 1992.
I'm not sure what your point was, but there is almost no chance that it wasn't fricking stupid.
