    We can settle once and for all the "split NC question." On the ncaa website, the following appears about the 1958 National Championship:

    1958
    Iowa: FW
    LSU: AP, Berryman, Billingsley, Boand, DeVold, Dunkel, FB News, Football Research, Helms, Litkenhous, National Championship Foundation, Poling, Sagarin, UPI, Williamson

    This is the link: www.ncaa.org/champadmin/ia_football_past_champs.html

    Let's "win one for the Nicker" (don't say that out loud) and crush the Cyclones or Hog-eyes or whatever.

    :wink: :wink:

    Football Writers Association of America (1954-present), the No. 1 team of the year is determined by a five-person panel representing the nation's football writers. The national championship team named receives the Grantland Rice Award. More information can be found at www.footballwriters.com.

    After further review of the championship page LSU should be able to claim 6 National Titles. If Bama can do it why can't LSU.

    1958

    I never hear Iowa fans talk about the 1958 team. They talk about that era, Rose Bowl victories and the coach, but not about the 1958 team

    Alabama claims 12 National Titles... but some of those are as questionable as the Iowa 58 title.
