Why is it we only ever see teams displaying their BCS or CFP trophies since 1998? Because the other titles don’t exist anymore, regardless of what the polls say.
The BCS is outdated now. The 4 team playoff will be outdated as of the end of this season. The AP poll system has been part of crowning college football National champions since 1936, as long as the AP continues to give a NC trophy it will remain relevant.
I mean, ain’t nobody turned one down!
