You'll get no argument out of me! But BYU's "mythical" 1984 football
National Championship was earned the same way any other Division I
college football championship has ever been earned. They were voted as
National Champions and BYU by both polls. All Division I College
National Football championships have been mythical.
It's a travesty and an insult to college football when a
second-rate team from a third-rate conference playing a
fourth-rate schedule can even be *considered* for the
national champioship much less actually garner enough
votes to claim it. We can give BYU partial thanks for
this BCS nonsense. The BCS did prevent Utah from pulling
a BYU last year but a playoff would be better.
