I guess you could call it "mythical".  The BCS championship is just
that...the BCS championship.  The NCAA does not award any championship in
FBS football.  Mythical means it doesn't exist, it's imaginary.   That's
probably as good a term as any.  There has never been a national champion
in Div 1 football.  We didn't win it 5 times, no one has ever won it. There
are AP poll champions, USA Today Coach's poll champions, BCS
champions...etc. etc.  But there is not now or ever has been a National
Champion because a Big-boy school football championship is imaginary.

I have given myself a headache.
