Ole Miss gave Matt Luke a blank national champions tree and it’s already broken

We’re not a Texas A&M blog, but the Aggie boys have been making some funny news of late. On Wednesday, A&M “awarded” newly crowned football emperor Jimbo Fisher with a blank NCAA Division I Football National Championship trophy-plaque or some-such, which is technically the name of the FCS’ national championship award. Texas A&M is nominally a member of the FBS register of football programs, so let fly your jokes as you will.

Anyway, this future fake news bit of TAMU football glory-claiming raises interesting questions for every college football program in the country, not least UCF, who actually won last season’s national college football championship, because the Knights went totally undefeated over the course of the 2017 season.
