Maybe if your school had the guts to go independent, you would be counted as a P5.
Remember P5 is more than just strength on the field.
In context it's a completely meaningless definition that just grandfathers a few premade scheduling agreements to follow the current rules. P5 does indeed mean more than strength on the field but it also means a lot of other things Army, BYU, etc. don't have.
Like what? A G5 conference?
But we do have National Championships. I will take those over a conference.
SMU has national championships and I will take a conference
Your 1935 claim is tenuous at best compared to Stanford or Minnesota.
But more importantly, you had Doak Walker.
