The American Football Coaches Association - who today conducts the Coaches Poll - awarded Oklahoma State's football team a retroactive national championship earlier today

Reports from CBS Sports and ESPN, and media release from the AFCA, with the latter offering the most detail:

"At the request of multiple schools, the AFCA established a Blue Ribbon Commission of coaches to retroactively select Coaches’ Trophy winners from 1922 (when the AFCA was founded) up to 1949 (the year before the Coaches’ Poll was first published). That panel of coaches took information submitted by schools who felt they were worthy of consideration and used that data in the research and selection process."​

Will no doubt see this championship appear repeatedly in Oklahoma State's future PR
And its begun, on Twitter and via media release from Oklahoma State

One can only imagine how OU fans are reacting, among others
