| Michigan State, Arkansas, and Nebraska were all 10-0 at the end of the 1965 regular season. In an attempt to avoid the previous year's uproar, the AP waited until after the new year to crown the 1965 national champion. Despite losing to UCLA by a score of 13-3 in the Rose Bowl, Michigan State was declared the UPI National Champion while underdog Alabama, who defeated UCLA 13-3, were crowned the AP National Champions. |
