What Would it Take for Each SEC Program to Win a National Title?

Now that the SEC football national title streak is over, we can take time to look back and reflect on how amazing it was that so many different programs- UF, LSU, Bama, Auburn- contributed to that streak. And it made me wonder, what would it take for the rest of the SEC to win a national title? My list of those who didn't contribute to the streak:
UGA - Take the talent in their state and win. Easiest one in the list.
USCsr- they utilize the permanent rivalry with TAMU to mix in some elite 7 on 7 Texas offensive talent with those defense monsters their state and nearby Virginia produces. Heck their current squad with just a single freak Texas QB (a Vince, Johnny, RG3, etc.) would be a contender.
UK - the rules of game change so the ball is round
Mizzou - they join the B1G and sneak through their schedule in a down year for tOSU. (just joking guys yall were close last year)
tUofA - leverage A&M's SEC success (after our title run) to become the next OU (or is OU the New Arky?) by reopening those pipelines like they had in the 60's.
Ole Miss - MSU suffers the death penalty and is kicked out of the SEC leaving them as the sole power for MS talent.
MSU - Ole Miss suffers the death penalty and is kicked out of the SEC leaving them as the sole power for MS talent. And some sort of Jackie Sherrill clone (we would like one too).
TAMU - abstain
Tenn - Bama recruiting violations
Vanderbilt - the O'Bannon trial (or some head injury trial) ruins college football, scholarships are trashed and everything is taken to a division 3 level. Vandy then competes with Stanford and the Ivy League for all future football titles as us heathens move onto the next violent sport.
Your list?

LSU - Nick Saban return to Baton Rouge.

Incredible luck and hardly any turnovers

LSU - Bama, Ole Miss, Texas A&M, Auburn, Arkansas, and MSU get the death penalty. Fixed SEC Championship and the opposing team in the NCG has a deathly disease outbreak and every player catches it.
Still will need Nick Saban back to take home the title.

Ole Miss & MSU - join together.
I doubt either of us sees a national championship in our lifetime. If we were one school we would probably win one every 5 years or so in one of the big 3 sports.
Or yeah...one of us gets the death penalty.

Starting off, but then we would become the pinnacle of college programs and win it every year.

Ole Miss - all other teams in college football die in plane crashes.

Oh well...I guess we all can just continue bickering and never winning anything. The Landmass way.

That would be unfortunate for LSU, since it would be many unneeded deaths. #27-24

Texas A&M is easy.
Get a good defense, and rework the NCAA rules to give Manziel 6 additional years of eligibility.

UGA - They will win it eventually. Just a matter of time and some lucky breaks
USC - Bring in another great coach to capitalize off of what Spurrier has put together (after he retires)
UK - start diverting all resources away from basketball and into football. Still probably won't happen.
Ole miss - I don't know. I'm sure it's possible, but I don't really see how they get there.
MSU - No.
A&M - Take advantage of UTa being down. Establish itself as the premier college football program in the state.
Vanderbilt - No.
