re: The last non-Big 6 team to win an outright SEC Football Championship

Sadly, we haven't. We dominated both precursor conferences, but we were declining by the time SEC formed. Our closest was 1935 where our only conference loss was 7-2 to LSU. Interestingly, that LSU team had the first Heisman winner Jay Berwanger at HB.

Good lord. I completely ignored this statement, hoping that a lack of contradiction would lead people to believe it even if it wasn't true. They would tell their children, and their children would tell their children, and so on. Within a few generations, the myth that Vanderbilt won multiple SEC titles would disseminate like a real-world version of "Idiocracy," and within a couple centuries, it would be so entrenched that Snopes itself couldn't change peoples' minds.

You just undid all my hard work. Thanks.
