The AP was so saddened by the fact that USC wasn't in the game that they awarded them a National Championship as a consolation prize.
How was the AP saddened by USC's absence from the game when they had USC ranked #1 in their poll before the game ever took place? Should all of the AP voters have been like: "Well, #2 LSU just beat #3 Oklahoma so let's award them the national championship!"
AP #1 USC defeated AP #4 Michigan 28-14 in the Rose Bowl while AP #2 LSU defeated AP #3 Oklahoma 21-14 in the Sugar Bowl. Why should the voters in the Associated Press have automatically changed their vote from USC to LSU?
