SEC All-Sports Trophy
Through the end of the 2011–2012 school year, the Florida Gators have won 204 Southeastern Conference (SEC) team championships, the most in conference history.[69][70]
The SEC All-Sports Trophy began in 1973 as the Bernie Moore Trophy and tabulated the league's best men's sports program.[71] In 1983, the SEC also began recognizing the best women's sports program in the conference, as well as the best overall SEC sports program.[72] In 1994, the New York Times Regional Newspaper Group assumed responsibility for awarding the trophies.[1] In the 39-year history of the awards, Florida has won nineteen Women's Trophies, sixteen Men's Trophies, and twenty-two Overall SEC All-Sports Trophies (including twenty-two of the last twenty-five).[1]
SEC rival Georgia won the overall 2005–2006 All-Sports Trophy to snap Florida's record streak at fourteen straight (1990–1991 through 2004–2005).[1] Florida reclaimed the SEC All-Sports Trophy for the 2006–2007 school year, and the Gators again swept the overall, men's, and women's all-sports trophies in every year since.[1] The Gators are the only SEC sports program to earn all three SEC all-sports trophies in a single year, and have swept all three trophies twelve times.

The point of this thread is best current athletic department. That's why Auburn is last.
Alabama is two time defending champion in football (and gymnastics) and defending champ in softball and women's golf with a chance to win in men's or women's golf, gymnastics, and softball this year.
Alabama finished second in the SEC in basketball and is a half game back of first in baseball. There is zero bias in either of those statements.
LSU's 35 running championships are great and all, but aren't applicable in this thread.
Florida went 11-1 in football and have a great chance to win the basketball championship this year. Their baseball isn't great but neither is ours.
Florida or Alabama should be first.
