What difference does it make.


There is only one true national champion relative to it being decided on the field. Thats TOSU. All previous national championships are both irrelevant and bullshite. LSU's included

Currenty I'd probably say so, but the gap is closing pretty quick. However, I also think a few other schools could make an argument for #2 too

Here's some additional info that you can find on Winsipedia that's interesting.

In that case, I guess we have to rank this thing based on SEC Titles, right?

Why not count their other titles when they finished atop the SEC standings then, specifically 1985 & 1990?

Really didn't think about it much, just noted the 1 and tacked it on.

to make a correction LINK 14 Conference tittles Claimed national titles 2 (1942, 1980)
Unclaimed national titles 10 (1896, 1920, 1927, 1941, 1946, 1966, 1968, 1982, 1983, 2007)

That isn't a correction. We are only using AP/Major Poll Titles to stay away from this ridiculous "claimed title" debate we always end up falling into.

I basically just assign 2 points for national titles, and 1 for SEC

So UT and LSU are both at 17 points

UF at 15
