Parker Davis Can't Lose

Post by The Ancient Enemy »

Not so fast, my friend!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NCAA_Divis ... ampionship

TAE's own crack staff (I'm an army of one like Mad Max) will now expose the LATEST attempt to pull the wool over people's eyes. I am the Geraldo Rivera of BC only I don't throw chairs and I am not a Mexican.

9 titles, eh?

We will travel slowly into the past, starting with the most recent attempt.

1981: Jackie Sherril leads the Pitt Nation to a "national championship". That title was awarded by the "NCF" or National Championship Foundation. Sounds legit, right? I guess they have organizational problems within the now dead NCF, since Texas and SMU and Nebraska were also awarded "national titles" by the NCF that season. Also that year, Penn State was given the "national title" by the "DuS" or "Dunkel System". In addition to all these national champs, too bad Clemson walked away with the 4 important "national titles" like the AP and Football Writers Association.

1976: Johnny Majors, who's second stint was far more comical if I remember correctly, which I do, did actually win a national title.

1937: Pitt took a 40 year R&R between '37 and '76, I guess because they were such a powerhouse that they had nothing left to prove. Jock Sutherland's club claims the AP title.

1931: Jock Sutherland's boys claim a national title after an 8-1 season. Too bad USC walked away with the 3 major ones that year.

1929: Jock Sutherland and the Ft. Duquesne Panthers (was Pittsburgh even founded yet?) walks away with a "national title" from a foundation from THIS guy:

College football historian Parke Davis is the only selector considered by the NCAA to have primarily used research in his selections. Davis did all of his work in 1933, naming retroactive national champions for most of the years from 1869–1932 and naming Michigan and Princeton (his alma mater) co-champions at the end of the 1933 season.

Are you as punch-drunk from that paragraph as I am? That's right, Parke Davis awarded national championship titles to schools who played their "title season" SIXTY FOUR YEARS PRIOR. What the **** research did this a-hole supposedly do?! Where in the Sam Hell did Parke Davis even find NEWSPAPER articles that even REMOTELY articulated what happened during regular season games in the 1869 season? Do you realize yet why I think this guy is a carpet bagger? He gave those titles to whoever he wanted! There was no "research", you dolts!

I want to make it known right now as a college football expert, who's brain is about to burst b/c I have so much knowledge and intellect, that I have declared, retroactively, that Penn State won 87 national championships. No, you can trust me, this is legit, I used "research". Pitt can keep their one, the only real one, with Majors and we'll let Notre Dame have 3 or 4 since they are good for the sport. All others have been given to a team of my choosing, and that team is Mississippi Valley State.



Walking away with the 3 major titles in 1929 was Rockne's Irish. Sorry, Jocky, better luck in the '30's, wanker.

1918: Glenn Warner's 4-1 Panthers claim a national title. Pitt walks away with 2 of the 3 major awards. Other goes to Michigan in a SPLIT NATIONAL TITLE.

1916: Glenn Warner's Panthers claim the national title, and to my dismay, this one seems legit. BUT.... Army walks away with Parke Davis' title this season. Hey, you gotta include them. Can't embrace Mr. Davis and then dismiss him.

1915: Parke Davis gives Glenn Warner the national title. Too bad no one else did, and Cornell goes home with the two meaningful awards.

1910: Joe Thompson and his Pitt Panthers are awarded a national title by 1 of the 3 major foundations. Harvard gets the other 2. Another "National Championship" for Pitt, in their own retarded minds.

Thus ends today's shooting exposition, as I shoot Pitt's wheels off yet again. Tune in next time, honkeys.
