The 1941 college football regular season ended with the Golden Gophers of the University of Minnesota repeating as the AP Poll national champion. This was Minnesota's fifth national championship in eight years. The Big Ten Conference did not allow their teams to participate in the post-season bowl games,[citation needed] therefore the undefeated, untied Duke Blue Devils, faced the #12-ranked Oregon State Beavers in the Rose Bowl. The Rose Bowl game had been temporarily moved from Pasadena, California to Durham, North Carolina following the attack on Pearl Harbor. Oregon State beat Duke, 20-16, but postseason games were played after the AP Poll rankings. Each writer listed his choice for the top ten teams, and points were tallied based on 10 for first place, 9 for second, etc. The AP then ranked the twenty teams with the highest number of points. Mississippi State, who won the SEC championship, was unable to participate in the post-season due to the wartime airport and train station closings. Therefore, the Georgia Bulldogs and the Alabama Crimson Tide were selected to play in the Orange Bowl and Cotton Bowl, respectively. Georgia defeated TCU 40-26 and Alabama defeated the Texas A&M Aggies 29-21.[2]


In addition to Minnesota's regular season AP national championship, the Golden Gophers were also selected national champions by Billingsley,[3]Boand, DeVold, Dunkel, Football Research, Helms, Litkenhous, the National Championship Foundation, Poling,[3]Sagarin and Sagarin (ELO-Chess).[4] The Alabama Crimson Tide were selected national champions by the Houlgate Poll.[4] The Texas Longhorns were selected national champions by the Berryman[3] and Wilson polling systems.[4] The University of Texas doesn't claim this season as a national championship though. All selectors of national title teams are documented in the official 2010 NCAA FBS College Football Record Book. These selectors were nationally syndicated in newspapers and magazines during the 1941 season.[5]
