The NCAA keeps records of these polls, but they DO NOT recognize a D-I football national champion. That's why there are polls, the NCAA has no official D-I champion. That's why, for example, if everything Linda Bensel-Myers said had been proven true, our record would have officially been changed to 0-13, but we would have still been National Champions because the NCAA has no power to take something they don't grant. Just 1 more reason we need a better system and a true, recognized champion.
