Not so; Lsu was #1 in both AP and UPI polls in 1958 and were unanimous NC.
Iowa won the FWAA title, so no, LSU was not unanimous. The FWAA poll was the only full season poll at that time, which Iowa fans argue makes it more legit. And yes, Iowa does officially claim the 1958 title.
ETA: And interesting footnote: Up until last year, LSU had never won the Grantland Rice Award.

Actually No I just went through their website and it doesn't show where they claim the title in 1958.

I can assure you that the only polls that meant anything were the AP and UPI (I was there). I don't know where you are getting your information about the FWAA (whatever the hell that is), but the AP and UPI ran from preseason to end of season; sounds like full season to me.
