* The mythical championship teams above were selected by the following:
H: (1889--1923) Helms Athletic Foundation.
R: (1924--1930) Rissman Trophy.
K: (1931--1935) Knute Rockne Memorial Trophy.
A: (1936--1991) Associated Press.
U: (1950--1991) United Press International 
C: (1950--1991) "consensus" (defined here as AP + UPI).
 
[There's a better ranking than Rissman for the 1924-1930 era, but I don't
 have the data for it.  I know it's better because it lists Georgia Tech
 #1 in 1928, rather than USC. :-) ]
