The schools were NOT party to the agreement. The agreement itself pertained only to the Coaches’ POLL. You are ascribing a power to the AFCA they did not possess. I understand your argument. It’s just not factual.

That is NOT factual. The vote was for the winner of the "BCS title game will be Champion". The BCS title game pitted the top 2 of the BCS poll together. The BCS at the time was comprised of the Coaches Poll, The AP poll, and Computer rankings.

So NO, it wasn't just some coaches pulling some rogue shite although it was coaches that did the actual voting to determine the method used to find the official champ. I'm sure the coaches got the ADs involved, etc.. after 2003 when AP left the formula, colley-matrix and sagarin and maybe something else joined in. Sorry for spelling, I'm going off memory.

Anywho, you are being disingenuous when you play the BCS voting off as some coaches only bullcrap.

This was the official champion recognized by everyone up until some butthurt left coasters got involved and changed the rules. Waaaa, I'm going to take my ball and go home. AP is a f'in joke. The second the schools determined an official means to determine the champ, the AP doesn't matter (officially) except for a small % of the country. This is 100% factual. Sorry.
