1941 Alabama

Ok, so here are the last poll results, and it was about as lopsided as I expected. To the question: "Which team should play Ohio State for the national championship?" LSU ran away with it, with 60 percent of the vote. Hawaii got three votes, Georgia two, while Oklahoma, Virginia Tech and Southern California all got one.

So it's time for the big poll, the one directly tied to the book. Hopefully it'll get a lot of response.
Speaking of two-loss titles, although the Crimson Tide lost two games in 1941, it still received national title consideration, finished No. 1 in the Houlgate rankings, and defeated Texas A&M at the Cotton Bowl, 29-21. However, Minnesota was the consensus champion. Courtesy of the Paul W. Bryant Museum.
