agreed, they are the champion from the 2007 season

I treat the national champion concept as an earned HONOR.
It is a position that no one else has
same could be said about #2, and #3 and so on
if 1 team can carry their earned ranking from the previous season, then all have to
the idea is ridiculous anyway (to carry rankings from one season to next), because rationality actually makes a difference in these polls, BUT to insinuate that only last years rankings shuld carry over for 1 team and not everyone really just takes it to a new level

no they do not,
they are NOT National Champions.
There is only 1 National Champion each year and it should carry that as a fringe benefit
here is a by-product of such benefit too..
as it is now, teams like USC WHO DO NOT PLAY A CONFERENCE TITLE GAME, w/out having played what could possibly be a team of their same caliber.
If the 1 position was automatically populated from last year's champion...as soon as they loose,...
then the 1 position could have a little more
room for debate...
when was the last time that the PRESEASON poll was right anyway?
