CollegeFootballTalk.com, a sister site of ProFootballTalk.com, will present the CFT 2008 National Championship Trophy to the Utah Utes and coach Kyle Whittingham at the University of Utah on Thursday.
Whittingham, who broke BCS ranks by voting for his 13-0 team as the national champion in the USA Today poll, accepted the offer, and CFT says it cleared the presentation of the trophy with the NCAA. Coaches are supposed to vote for the winner of the BCS title game as the No. 1-ranked team. Florida beat Oklahoma in the national championship this year.
Utah finished No. 4 in the USA Today poll and No. 2 in the AP, receiving 16 of 65 first-place votes.
CFT: Stabbed to death following an altercation at a school-sponsored dance in October 2009, Jasper Howard‘s parents are seeking significant financial compensation for the parties they believe are at least partly responsible.
