Oppose ALT1 or any hook describing the 1948 national championship as "consensus". Cited article states "first outright national championship since 1948" but ALT1 hook changes this to "...consensus...". On the topic of national championships, "consensus" has several meanings. One is agreement between the two wire service polls (
AP Poll and
Coaches Poll), which the 1997 title fails (AP only). But the 1948 title didn't have agreement between those polls either... the Coaches Poll started in 1950. Another meaning of "consensus", the one used in the NCAA records book, is any national championship after 1950 awarded by one or more of the Big 4 selectors (
AP Trophy,
Coaches' Trophy,
Grantland Rice Award, and
MacArthur Bowl). The 1997 title meets that criteria with 3/4 of the selectors; the 1948 title does not (as it is pre-1950).

Certainly long enough, new enough (although I should note for posterity that DYKcheck says that this was "promoted to Good Article status on February 6, 2024"). ALT2 is short enough, cited, and interesting, although I should note that the source claims to contain the fact that the team finished the season undefeated 9-0, which should probably be fixed. No neutrality issues found, no valid copyright complaints. I'm not seeing a source for the Bracket or the Scoring summary tables, and there are two end-of-paragraph claims that prima facie lack a cite which I've marked.--

- @ Launchballer: I have fixed the 9-0 citation and the cn tag issues. The scoring summary is cited by the "box score" link in the summary box above it and the bracket is a template so I can't add a citation into the bracket itself though as far as I can tell everything in the bracket are cited in prose in the article.

PK-WIKI, per your latest edit on this article, is there a difference between an "consensus" and "outright". The infobox at 1948 Michigan Wolverines football team says "consensus". College football national championships in NCAA Division I FBS lists no other champion besides Michigan for 1948. The term "outright" is most often used with conference championships to denote that the title was not shared by two or more teams. When "outright" is used to described national championships, I think it's meant to denote that the national title was not split between the two major polls, AP and Coaches. Of course, from 1936 to 1949, there was only one major poll, the AP. Jweiss11 ( talk) 17:27, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- In my opinion "consensus" is mainly meant to indicate agreement between the AP Poll and Coaches Poll. This is backed up by a quick search on Newspapers.com, where the phrase is barely used prior to about 1965. It was a term meant as an antonym for "split" national championship.
- The NCAA records book uses a related but slightly different definition. They have a list of "Consensus National Champions" that includes any/all teams that were selected since 1950 by any of the top tier selectors: AP Poll, Coaches Poll, MacArthur Bowl, Grantland Rice Award, Top 25. The 1950 date again indicates agreement between the polls. I think it would be more accurate to say those are the "consensus selectors", and than 1990 Georgia Tech would be a (not the) consensus national champion, but they did not win a/the consensus national championship.
- There are probably modern sources that call 1936–1949 national championships "consensus" by virtue of winning the AP Poll, essentially retroactively applying the prestige of the 1960s+ AP poll back to its humble beginnings as a newspaper column. I don't think these national championships should be called "consensus" without contemporary sources cited using that word. Were the 1939 Texas A&M "consensus" national champions? I would argue definitely not, despite Wikipedia currently listing that. They didn't even win the trophy. 1939 USC topped the Dickinson System ranking and won the preeminent trophy of the day, the Knute Rockne Memorial Trophy.
- 1997 Michigan won more national championships than 1948 Michigan. They both won the AP Poll. 1997 additionally won the Grantland Rice Award and MacArthur Bowl. Seems kind of silly to call 1948 "consensus" for winning the AP Poll, but 1997 non-consensus for winning the AP Poll and 2 additional major trophies. According to the meaning of the term, neither are "consensus".

- Every relevant selector listed at
College football national championships in NCAA Division I FBS picked Michigan in 1948, hence "consensus".
1946 Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team finished atop the AP poll, but
1946 Army Cadets football team was named national champ by 6 selectors and
1946 Georgia Bulldogs football team by 1 selector, thus there was no consensus champ in 1946.

- "Consensus" is a term or art used to indicate agreement between the two major wire service polls. Ipso facto, any team prior to the 1950 introduction of the UP Poll cannot be a "consensus" national champion.
- "Consensus" indicates agreement between the AP/Coaches. The NCAA book additionally adds NFF/FWAA to the term. It indicates nothing about who other selectors chose, or if other schools claim that year.
- "Lesser" selectors have no bearing on "consensus" championships post 1950, so I don't see why that would make a distinction between 1946 and 1948. If pre-1950 AP Poll wins would qualify as "consensus", both Note Dame and Michigan would be "consensus" for their respective AP Poll wins regardless of who the Williamson System chose each year.

- Pre-1950 championships are definitely not considered "consensus" national championships by the NCAA records book.
- There is a table for consensus national championships, and it's 1950-present. The 1936-1949 AP champions are not in the "consensus" table.
- As a result we have not bolded any pre-1950 national champions at College football national championships in NCAA Division I FBS. There is some discussion of this issue in the Talk page archive there.

- Every relevant selector listed at
College football national championships in NCAA Division I FBS picked Michigan in 1948, hence "consensus".
1946 Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team finished atop the AP poll, but
1946 Army Cadets football team was named national champ by 6 selectors and
1946 Georgia Bulldogs football team by 1 selector, thus there was no consensus champ in 1946.
