The NCAA does not conduct a national championship in Division I-A football and is not involved in the selection process. Since 1998, the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) operated jointly by the ACC, Southeastern, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten and Pacific-10 Conferences uses a ranking system to determine the number one and number two teams at the end of the season. These two teams play each other in a post-season bowl game for the BCS national championship.
When that was decided there can be only 1.
Winning the Rose, Fiesta, Sugar, or Orange bowl is a great accomplishment. Cheers to them all!
But, #1 is reserved for 1 team (that's why they call it #1). This year, it was the winner of the Sugar bowl.
The system is corrupt and bent in every way possible but in this, it is clear.

Oh, and cheers to the winners and participants in the other bowls as well. It has been a delightful season!

Winning the Rose, Fiesta, Sugar, or Orange bowl is a great accomplishment.They had to leave out the Cotton Bowl because they were afraid Dems would call it a White Wing Conspiracy
