No worries, if your team didn't claim them, Alalama did.

No worries, no matter what kind of method you want to use for national championships, Alabama still has more than you.
I prefer to look at it as Alabama claims more fraud titles than any team,...
And you can argue against how many? 1?
Which one ate you referring to? I could argue mote, but Id have to go llok up thears. Maybe you are referring to the year they finished 3rd in their own conference and had over a dozen teams with better record, but claim to have been 1st in all the land? gotta be one of the worst claims of all time.
Regardless, 6 NC's is still impressive.
The the record, that guy's full of crap and doesn't know what he's talking about. Most humorous to me is his claim that the 1941 championship was retroactive, and his ignorance of that Houlgate had to the Football Thesurus. Safe to say if you don't know that, you don't know crap on the subject, and should not be writing about it. Nor should he be taken seriously.
Ain't as good as 7...
Dudes pretty biased, but I still giggled.
I still think all NC's should be erased prior to the BCS era simply b/c #1 and #2 rarely ever played each other for the NC. For fuck's sake, the AP awarded BYU a freakin' NC for beating a 6-5 Michigan team in the Holiday Bowl. Out of Texas's 4 NC's, we played #1 or #2 twice. We beat #9 Notre Dame for one of our titles. Out of OU's 7 NC's, how many were won played against #1 or #2, just out of curiosity? Hell, ya'll were awarded a NC in '74 without playing a bowl game b/c OU was on probation; your season didn't even count. The BCS may have many flaws, but it doesn't compare to the fucked up system that was in place for decades prior to the BCS being born.
You advocate stripping Nebraska of it's 1971 and 1995 National Titles?
I advocate stripping everybody of their NC's prior to the BCS era if they didn't play #1 or #2 for the title.
