I love how many claimed national championships are on this list.

Are you even competing for a championship if you don't get invited to the CFP?

Utah in 2008? 😂

Much better résumé than some other prior national champions

Medute

What sets those prior teams apart is that they are actual national champions.

Just talking season resumes. It’s not really one to laugh at IMO

Medute

6/29/22 6:03pm

It’s one thing to wish …

Ron Mexico

It’s another to pretend and celebrate like it actually happened.

Ron Mexico

6/29/22 6:09pm

Neither of those are my claims or points

Mines not about yours, but about the OP and the P12 website.

So you're not the one who keeps putting national champs on the Ute wiki page?

13 of the last real 16 NCs are from the SEC. Yikes. Thanks Clemson and OSU for

When you can’t debate facts, stick to memes and smiley faces

Medute

6/29/22 6:05pm

When you make up stuff like "better resume" then...

WJCougar

6/29/22 6:06pm

It was better. Make an actual point that it wasn’t

Medute

6/29/22 6:11pm

Just because you think it was a better resume does not mean it was.

WJCougar

6/29/22 6:30pm

So you’re not going to make a point? Got it

Medute

6/29/22 6:40pm

I think I made my point already.....

There is irony here. Or maybe Alanis Morrissette irony

Medute

When you can't debate facts, debate résumés from different seasons.

I'm sure we could say the same about BYU 1996, but you don't see us trying to

I personally didn’t claim anything. I just said the résumé was good

Medute

6/29/22 6:09pm

Still not national champs.

Jeffacka

6/29/22 6:23pm

Agreed

Medute

6/29/22 6:26pm

Thanks for your resume. We’ll let you know.

So the MWC champ is now the Pac12 National Champ?

SausageKing

6/29/22 6:06pm

Wasn’t my point at all

Medute

6/29/22 6:10pm

So since 1975, the PAC 12 has only 5 consensus National Champs. And technically

TheMediator

UU wasn't even in the PAC with that claimed NC. And WA in 1984. Weaksauce.

6/29/22 7:10pm

WA in 1984 ducked the chance to play BYU and took 2nd in the Pac10.

Claiming to be champ of anything when you're not even in the title game? It's honestly sad

krindorr

6/29/22 7:27pm

I mean, people used to win championships without even playing ranked teams

Medute

6/29/22 7:28pm

Here's the reality on the 1984 BYU season

Can't say I agree with all of that, but some good points

Good post

Medute

6/29/22 9:10pm

For what it's worth, I find it just as distasteful when people here claim PAC12 titles that they feel they "should have"

100%, in both cases it could even be deserved, but it's just not what happened

krindorr

6/29/22 8:52pm

And 38 years later no matter how you feel...
