[QUOTE="Heisman's Ghost, post: 447358, member: 4015"] Well, upon further review it would appear that all three teams have a case. Michigan State was undefeated but did not play in a bowl game. Notre Dame was undefeated as well and had the usual media adulation. Alabama was undefeated and really did not have any close games other than a very close game with Tennessee. Tech was ranked number 9 and played number 8 Tennessee the week before and pulled an upset. Tide fans claim they were cheated because of media bias towards the state of Alabama following the racial unrest of the early 1960s. Alabama was the subject of a famous quote by Vince Lombardi after the Green Bay Packers won the Super Bowl that year: A reporter asked him if the Packers could now claim to be the best team in the world and Lombardi (maybe TIC) replied "I don't know we have not played Alabama". Getting back to Iceeater's point about defense. All three teams had ferocious defenses. Alabama may have had a slight advantage on offense compared to the other two because of quarterback Kenny Stabler and wide receivers Dennis Homan and Ray Perkins but that is about it. [/QUOTE]
