OT: First time in 148-year history that title contenders lost to same team
From Reddit with love: https://www.reddit.com/r/CFB/comments/7n..._148_year/

Quote:Not only has it never happened in any of the 39 poll's, it has not happened even if you cross reference the polls. Here's a representation of what that means using the year 1980 as an example:

In 1980, those polls selected 5 different national champions and 5 runner ups (though all runner ups were also a champion in one of the polls). None of those 5 teams lost to the same team as any of the other 5 teams.

So wow. Much history. 03-idea

So that is why the P5 Playoff Cartel didn't see this coming. 0 - 148 seemed like a lock to them 03-lmfao
