I don't think that guy is an ND fan, for what it's worth. He just hates Bama.
We still have the edge in some metrics, but y'all have the edge in the most important one now, so that's that.
In our defense, I don't believe we've ever retroactively claimed any titles other than the one Rockne, in 1926, had Dickinson claim for 1924. I do kind of wish we would because we have some legitimate claims on titles that we don't claim (1919, 1920, 1953, 1964, 1993). Of those, probably the best claims we have are on 1919 and 1953, and 1993 still kind of chaps my arse. We were better than FSU that year and beat them without too much trouble, and we would have won a playoff.
ND really should claim 1964. A major poll at the time selected them and it's listed on the NCAA site.
1993 was the Bobby Bowden Lifetime Achievement award.
Edit: 1919 is listed on the NCAA site too. Claim that son of a bitch!
