    It's nice for me to be able to play the ignorance card about this whenever I want to do so, as if this alleged championship really did happen, why didn't I hear about it? My MP was even a professor at the BYU before and after his time spent babysitting missionaries, but he told us nothing.

    If it had really happened, wouldn't the good people of Italy have been begging us to baptize them, no?

          At any rate, it was definitely the result of a consensus vote. The consensus of college coaches agree with us. As a non-coach, SeattleUte's opinion on this matter is evidently on par with tooblue's non-coach basketball analysis of the BYU/K State game.
          They gave us a crystal one too. It was during halftime of this year's game.

            I don't know that the comparison works. Deep Blue has probably accomplished more than the University of Utah football team will ever accomplish.

                I've heard that Deep Blue was a trash talker, but I didn't know it was a punk as well.

                  No, it said "Shall we play a game?".

                    really? which game? that is interesting.

                    I didn't know that. So I guess we do have a crystal ball trophy, after all.

                    I need to get back to campus so I can see that, along with the original consensus #1 AP trophy. While I am there I will also take a glimpse at the Heisman Trophy.

                          Crystal trophy was given during halftime of the Utah game. It actually wasn't real crystal, though. They agree with SU and awarded BYU a replica that was actually made out of recycled sprite bottles.
