You can try and discredit that website. The fact is it is an unbiased source who has actually put in enormous time and effort doing some outstanding and extremely in depth research, writing essentially an encyclopedia that is more authoritative and better researched than anything anyone else has ever done.
The fact you are either not smart enough or do not have enough integrity to realize it and give credit where credit is due is simply your shortcoming as a person.

It would fail English 101 even at AU, all that supposed research and no references to back up the info. Might as well quote wiki!

Bama has plenty of legit titles. The fact some bama fans try to defend all of them is a personal failing of bama fans.
I can only guess as to why. Personal insecurities or shortcominngs in other areas, lack of intelligence, just too much damn bama in them - those are some possibilities, but it probably varies by person to a large degree.

You left off Ole Miss and their 3.

I'll defend every one except 1941.

Don't forget about Texas A&M.

Forgot about them. I do think LSU should claim the 1908 title though.
Posted on 2/3/14 at 8:02 pm to Tiger n Miami AU83
1941 should be dropped. In the AP/UPI era, those are the two legitimate polls. Winning the Houlgate by itself doesn't constitute a legitimate claim.
Until recently, auburn had the integrity not to claim championships that weren't legitimate in seasons like 1983 and 2004. I have no doubt you will defend valiantly the new claims.

Well, you know I will defend 1983 AU. They have a stronger claim than any other team in 1983 and that is actually recognized pretty widely now.

Many have written articles and or stated that AU has a legit claim to 1983. Keep thinking sportsnations, the ajc, cbssportline, real clear sports, the new York times and others are aubies tho.

1983 auburn may have been the best team. They wouldn't be alone in being the best team that should have been voted national champions, if you want to make that argument. But if you want to call them national champions, then the question is "According to which poll?" I don't consider a team national champs in the AP/UPI era just for winning the Billingsley or Houlgate or Football Writer's. That's why 1941 Bama is not a legitimate claim, and neither is auburn 1983.
But if you want to make a shirt that says "1983 Auburn - Best team in the country and should have been national champions", I'll support you. :)
