titles. 1 for 130ish top level schools (fewer in 1984, I think) and 1 for the other schools. By your definition BYU 1984 championship was not consensus. No one would reasonably argue that the lower division champion would beat BYU that year. However, there is no consensus title across the divisions. You are making yourself look foolish by setting rules that should exclude BYU 1984 championship as consensus, if you actually followed your own rules.
