Well, we have the trophy, so that settles any debate.

When any of my Washington friends talk about 1984, I just say UW took the money and we have the trophy. The money was spent years ago but you can see the trophy on display in the BYU Student Athletic Building.

Link to Pac 12 declaring UW 1984 National champs (not de facto).

My favorite part of that link is they have 1990 Colorado as consensus national champions, but also list Washington

Since CU was not in the PAC that year, they couldn't have been as good, right?

I guess, or the nitwits up there on their academic ivory tower need to look up the word consensus

Colorado needed 5 downs to do it in 1990. That one has a huge * next to it.

I wonder if 2008 Florida recognizes Utah as national champs that year

yewts really do fit into that little man's conference.

No wonder it is the conference of champions.

The PAC-12: “The conference of SELF-IDENTIFIED Champions.”

Be nice. They can identify as whatever they want to be. If you went to a "real"

PAC12 is delusional. What garbage that list is.

DazeofBlue

11/30/21 4:36pm

Sooooo.... Every NC on that list after '72 is either shared, fake, or vacated.

BlueVU

wait, this is officially from the official Pac 12 website? What a joke.

Its just the data listed in the official NCAA record book which lists all major-selector designated teams

It's not lying, it's just revising history to fit the narrative. No surprise.

I would love to see them asterisk 2004

Auburn was also undefeated in 2004

They are claiming a championship for PAC12 from MWC Utah—who didn't win it?

ochobeeguy

11/30/21 4:52pm

Also claim championships from Big 8 member Colorado and WAC member Arizona State

Why is Washington claiming the 1984 NC?

Yeah, saying things like this on a resume would be a fireable offense.

2002 USC National Championship? 2003 Consensus NC?

Zoobieman

11/30/21 5:44pm

USC definitely seems to recognize 2003 and 2004 as championships

krindorr

11/30/21 9:28pm

In case anyone cares, the last Pac-12 National Champ was in 1991

Zoobieman

11/30/21 5:58pm

...I thought they had to vacate 2004 and 2005, not 2003

krindorr

11/30/21 9:25pm

Colorado's is also extra weak since they took 5 downs to do it.

DrYfire

11/30/21 10:17pm

That is ridiculous.

here's to hoping

11/30/21 5:59pm

They have Utah for 2008 even though

BlueLine

I mean, it's literally pulled from the NCAA Record Book, not a PAC12 thing

If they’re claiming 1984 and 2008, then BYU can claim 1983 and 1996

Again, this is taken from the official NCAA Record Book, it's not a PAC12 thing (link included)

Apparently not. Utah not listed on the NCAA page, Washington in 84 not listed

Neither of the polls ranking Washington #1 nor the poll ranking Utah #1 are

AlternateShot

Oh I 100% agree with you there - I think it's ridiculous how many teams the NCAA lists in their record books as the #1

krindorr

No, you are wrong. They/you are misrepresenting the data. The "major selector"

I'm not saying it's a great list; I'm saying the PAC12 didn't make up the list

So did we win a national championship last year? Must be a poll that had us #1

You'd think that part of vacating championships would be to stop claiming them
