I respect the post sincerely but there's a simple fact that needs to be addressed---If in fact the Houlgate System was recognized as a legitimate championship selector or poll in 1941 then that's the way it was. If they selected us then they did.Actually, Bama had more Selectors award their NC to them in 1966 and 1977 than 1941. Six (ARGH Power Ratings, Cliff Morgan, Clyde Berryman, Earl Jessen, National Championship Foundation, Soren Sorensen) in 1966. Two (Bob Kirlin, College Football Researchers Association) in 1977. One (Houlgate System) in 1941.

We can't use 2012 logic to determine if 1941 logic was correct. It's not 1941.
