LSU spoiled our chance at back-to-back National Championships
That's a nice non-AP or coaches poll national championship y'all have from 1964.

It also changed when the final polls were issued. Prior to 1965, the final polls were issued before the bowl game. Alabama was #1 in the AP poll but lost to Texas in their bowl game (21-17). Arkansas beat Texas earlier that year. Alabama finished 10-1. Arkansas finished 11-0. UPI moved to after the bowl game in 1974.
1964 started the movement toward having a national champion in college football. 50 years later and we are still struggling with it.
