Should be a split title if FSU beats Georgia

Only if bama wins the CFP which they will.



FSU isn’t beating uga though so doesn’t matter

It’s a shame Texas took their place.

you’re damn right!

FSU might not score, mate

Sorry but that’s not how this works. Ever since 2003 LSU fans have told us that the AP poll is insignificant. There is no such thing as a “split title.” The only true champion is the winner of the agreed upon system. The CFP is the agreed upon system, so even if FSU is voted number one following the national championship game, it’s meaningless and the winner of that title game is the one true champion.

To be clear, the winner of the four-team made for TV event is going to “claim” a National Championship.

To also be clear, the University of Alabama actively markets their “18” National Championships including selling merchandise with that number.

The 18 includes the 1941 “championship” awarded by the Houlgate system. Alabama was 9-2 that year and finished ranked 18th in the AP Poll.

That was true, until December 5, 2011 when the agreed upon system lost all semblance of credibility.

USC being snubbed in favor of Oklahoma in 2003 was a flaw in the system that was exposed.

2011, 2014, 2017, 2020 and 2023 were all about manipulating the event for TV ratings, not trying to truly decide the national champion on the field.
