Stand down, Auburn faithful. Even if the NCAA comes down with all available force on USC and the BCS strips the Trojans of their 2004 national title, the Associated Press won't, as previously speculated, be voting on a new champion.
Also, this is all assuming the NCAA investigation will ever wrap. A process expected to last six to ten weeks is now well into week fourteen. At this rate, Brian Cushing will know the sex of the child he's carrying before we learn whether any of USC's wins will be vacated.

USC's 2004 AP Title Not In Peril
So? Who cares about an AP title these days? USC’s 2003 AP title is irrelevant; and the 2004 title, if they get to keep it even with no victories on the season, will be equally irrelevant. Starting in 1998, there is ONE National Champion every season, and it’s whoever wins the BCS Trophy. AP titles these days are about as legit as the DeVold and Dunkel Systems titles have been in the past. The AP titles make pretty additions to the real Trophies when the same team wins both; but that’s all they are… garnish.
