Oklahoma and Texas will not be in the rankings until they each win a national championship while in the SEC. When that happens, they can be mentioned.
Penn State’s position in the B1G can be up for discussion as well. While in the B1G, they’ve had one undefeated season, a few conference titles. Their other undefeated seasons and two national titles occurred as an Independent. This is OU and Texas basically. Success in other places, but not in SEC. Both will have to win a NC in the SEC to be allowed in the rankings.
Here’s my list:
1. Alabama
2. Georgia
3. Tennessee
4. LSU
5. Florida
6. Auburn
7. Mississippi
8. Georgia Tech
9. Arkansas
10. Kentucky
11. Mississippi State
12. South Carolina
13. Missouri
14. Texas A&M
15. Vanderbilt
GT is included because of:
- 5 SEC titles
- undefeated in 1951 and 1952, and had a legit gripe to have the 1952 NC

You forgot Tulane. Didn’t they win the SEC in the late forties? Just asking, because I’m not sure. But I think they were good during that time.
