Is the NCAA not on board with the now defunct BCS in shaping history?

Or is it because the power has shifted and nobody gives a crap what those self-serving old suits did for money this past decade ala old Soviet Union politics?

BCS strips USC’s 2004 title...The decision marks the first time a major-college football or men’s basketball championship has been vacated since the polls began.....In keeping with BCS and NCAA policy, the title will be vacated and not awarded to another school.

So why does the NCAA website list USC as the 2004 champ on their official website?


Strange - how that stripping has been almost whitewashed.

It also lists 31 co-champs...from 1869 up until the last co-champ year in 2003...which is less than I would have thought. It seems a consensus was usually reached and we didn't need to bitch and moan and create a made for $ TV (one single bowl game) while excluding all others and call it a championship.

Great thread. I had forgotten about USC almost having two titles, yet in reality having none.

Thanks, assuming that was the purpose of your thread, and it wasn't to bitch about something because your team didn't benefit from it.
