Ohio State 13/7
Penn State 7/7
Minnesota 7/6

Not to nitpick but bama is at 13 now 
That they claim anyway.
The NCAA lists (not awarded by the NCAA of course) bama as having won championships in 4 other years as well, but these are not claimed by the school.

Who did they start out playing this year? If your going back to last year that's fine, VT scored more points against Bama than any other team that year that they played for the then National Champs which was ok with me, VT played very very good against them. It could have gone the other way with just one or two mistakes. But look at this year, Bama played a weak team so did many others which gave them time to prepare for bigger teams to play. I just get tired of it, as a fan I was really pissed about the BSU move, not only did I have to take off work for 2 days but I missed out on alot of local Labor day stuff just to make it to this game. They should have left it alone but $$ talked and BS walked!
VT did ok against bama, but the game was never in question, and it should have been a blowout. Total yards, Bama 498. Va Tech 155. They did good that it was not a total blowout.
They started with San Jose St., but played Penn St. (traditionally a top team) the very next week.
They also opened with Clemson the year prior to VT.
You're just pissed they lost. We all remember how excited you were about going to the game.
Actually, the USC and Texas games were either the second or third game of the year, I think the USC was the second and texas the third, in separate years of course.
I've seen teams win without having more total yards than the other team. VT was in the lead at half time, VT had less penalties for the whole game - Bama did play better for the whole game but it could have went the other way on just a few more mistakes on Bama's part. We can't really speculate either way since its done and over with and I was glad to see Bama win the NC as they deserved it. The main thing I always point out when someone says that Bama beat VT is that at least VT put up more points against Bama than any other team including Florida last year and that speaks alot for the Hokies offense at that point.
Yep, still pissed but ohh well, more pissed about the loss the following week. It was a very good game though so I can't complain much cept for the fact that not only were tickets about 90$ then another 80$ for hotel, plus gas, plus food, plus losing on 2 days pay... yeah it really pushed up there... would have been better left on the Saturday in October they originally had it on.

Nothing compared to the money Georgia fans pay driving down to Jacksonville every year to routinely lose to Florida.
Or the price for the Bama/Auburn game this year. Seats around the 30 are going for $800.
When I went to the Iron Bowl in 06 tickets in the end zone were $500 a pop.
No face value is not that high, I am not sure the printed price, but no matter what it is, you can not get them for that. The waiting list to get season tickets from the university is around 15,000 deep now, if not more.
So if you want to go, and dont have season tickets, that is what you will pay.
Care to do a recap on those numbers in the modern era? Since 1980, 1990, 2000? Looked at those numbers a while back and they are much different since Bo retired from Michigan, Woody from tOSU, et. al. Butt, they most certainly drop numerous conferences totally out of the equation (see IVY League.)
Hmmmm.... was just thinking, if you recompute those numbers since 1950 (yep 60 seasons ago), they would most likely present about the same conference stats as they do since the 80s (last 30 years.)
Considering the players are completely different after 4/5 years, I wouldn't go past that to consider power teams.
Hell, Auburn positively reeked a couple years ago, now look at them.
Well, I will just say this Auburn is #1 right now because of a Florida recruit. Also, Florida has put a lot of talent in the NFL over the last few seasons. They are also playing 45% Freshman and Sophomores this year, so we'll see if the rest of the season and in to next year if the players can live up to the hype.
During Miami's heyday, they never had anything about a 3 star recruit. Look at Notre Dame....they made the top 25 in recruiting the last 10 years...9 out of ten with 4 classes being top ten...and they have been mediocre AT BEST. Yeah, it's nice headlines landing the big name recruits...more times than not....they are flash in the pan.
