to be fair, that's not a claimed natty, the ap did vote and did award that title

however the ap DID NOT award a trophy for the first 5 titles (1936-1940) so if there *IS* a trophy in the blimp hangar, it's fake

it should also be noted that aggy holds a unique distinction that can never be repeated

reminder that for 30ish years the ap (and then coaches) polls were taken and titles awarded BEFORE the bowls

aggy were awarded their 1939 title undefeated at 11-0, outscoring the opposition 212 to 31

HOWEVER

tennessee were 10-0, and outscored their opposition 212 to 0

they scored the same number of points, but aggy needed an extra game to do it; tennessee were the defending national champions

since the start of the bcs, and now with the playoffs, it is impossible for a team to be unbeaten, untied and unscored upon, and not win the national title

advantage: aggy

Claimed simply means that some organization out there recognizes a team as the champ and the team includes it in their list of championships that they say they have.

Texas only claims 4 titles, but there are some organizatios out there (computer models) that list Texas as champs for other years. We don't CLAIM those titles.

He understand what floor is right? Not likely?
And Texas isn't losing 6 games no matter who's at QB. Not that talent and that defense.

Texas will be higher than his 6 wins floor, more so than aggy’s 5.
