- 1966_college_football_season abstract "The 1966 University Division football season was marked by some controversy as the year of "The Tie", a famous November 19 game between the two top-ranked teams, Michigan State and Notre Dame, that ended in a 10-10 tie. Both teams were crowned national champions by various organizations after the regular season concluded. Neither team participated in a post-season bowl game. Alabama which finished the regular season undefeated would finish third in the polls and would go on to win the Sugar Bowl in dominant fashion. During the 20th Century, the NCAA had no playoff for the college football teams that would later be described as "Division I-A". The NCAA Football Guide, however, did note an "unofficial national champion" based on the top ranked teams in the "wire service" (AP and UPI) polls. The "writers' poll" by Associated Press (AP) was the most popular, followed by the "coaches' poll" by United Press International) (UPI). In 1966, both services issued their final polls at the close of the regular season, but before teams competed in bowl games. The Associated Press presented the "AP Trophy" to the winner. The AP poll in 1966 consisted of the votes of as many as 63 sportswriters, though not all of them voted in every poll. Those who cast votes would give their opinion of the ten best teams. Under a point system of 10 points for first place, 9 for second, etc., the "overall" ranking was determined. In the preseason poll for 1966, Alabama was slightly ahead of Michigan State in first place votes (15 vs. 12) and points. The American Broadcasting Company began showing college football in color this season. By the NCAA rules, only 8 national and 5 regional telecasts were allowed during the season.".
