Fixed that for you.
But actually I would imagine the winner of the coaches poll will still be awarded the crystal ball trophy so conceivably some team could still catch up with Alabama in the future, although it's not likely.

I'd like NCAA to institute the use of World Championship Belts.

So Bama will always have more crystal balls than EVERYONE.
According to this Bama could ask for 4 more that they won before the trophy was given out, 1961, 64, 73, and 79.

In 2009, the AFCA issued the trophy to schools whose teams were voted number one by the Coaches' Poll in years before the trophy was first issued in 1986. Through the 1973 season, the final Coaches' Poll was released in early December, after the regular season, but before the bowl games. Beginning with the 1974 season, the Coaches' Poll would conduct its final poll after the bowl games.
