Interesting. Provided we have a solid win against TN just finishing top 5 is enough for me. As long as we finish higher than Kansas.
Naa... we have 2 losses... we played the OT and were beat fair and square. I'm just saying in the years college football has been around, there has only been one team to win a title with 2 losses... and that one is actually pretty suspect.
Yep, the Gophers in '60. However the linked page from the College Football Data warehouse shows the final AP & Coaches polls were released the end of November. The Gophers second loss in the bowl wasn't a factor. http://cfbdatawarehouse.com/data/national_championships/poll_results.php?year=1960
I just looked at West Virginia's schedule this year and got encouraged that Pitt might could pull the upset. Of course I will not put any money on it.
I don't know where you got your list, but....... Minnesota was the NC in 1936 Georgia was the NC in 1942 But even worse, :LSU231: was 11-0-0 and the NC in 1958 You're saying that Iowa at 8-1-1 topped the Chinese Bandits? Sacrilege!:cuss:
