Not since the playoff era...it was designed to eliminate this nonsense... UCF isn't a co-champion...I think Ok State finished 1st in this Matrix as well...no I'm not catholic...but I have this thing called reason and accountability as well...

So far UCF, the NCAA, and ESPN (who has an interest in the CFP being the only show in town) all agree that UCF was the co-national champion, but you agree with the schools that have an interest in maintaining the status quo over them because of your reasoning skills?

Sometimes I love this board.

When they run the story with the poll, doesn’t  it explain it at the bottom of the poll?

Your stance is that MOST people, follow CFB, read the newspaper, check the polls, and read the fine print under the poll. 

Agree to disagree. And, again, I love that you represent the academic juggernaut USF on this board. Feel free to take that as a compliment.

I saw that Utah is now celebrating having a share of the 2008 National Championship.

Maybe you've seen something I couldn't find?

Ute coach Kyle Whittingham welcomed the NCAA's endorsement, saying his '08 team “did everything we were supposed to do.” He's not expecting the school to hang a commemorative banner, though.

The NCAA has never called them a co-national champion as far as I can find and that erroneous assertion is what UCF and ESPN are basing their stance on ....

Yeah, I definitely believe that you've got it all figured out and ESPN has it wrong. Why don't you write to them and have them retract it?

Until then, I'll assume you're pretty biased on the subject.

Nothing to figure out. Nowhere in that record book does NCAA call you co-champions or champions of any kind......... I am biased but not blind.

Ok, can you find an ESPN or other media source that says that?
