1983-Auburn-Best team ever at AU
1982- UGA-Most physical D I ever saw
2011- LSU (although 1987 might have been the best OVERALL LSU team ever but Tommy H couldn't stay healthy)
1989-UT-Most under rated team in SEC history
2009-UF- If not for Bama UF creates a dynasty. Texas wasn't in Florida's league. We won the NC when we beat Florida.
The Horns were a formality.

1994. Everyone was doing a Tom Osborne circle jerk so we got put aside (again). The 94 team tore through every opponent other than at #5 Michigan which we won by a touchdown. Next week we beat #23 Ohio State 63-14. Indiana was a hangover game and we didn't do well, but it's entirely the Big Tens fault for making us go to the Rose Bowl and not playing Nebraska
Honorable mention: 1973 and 1969

87 and 69 LSU are both good calls but I think 2011 has to be it considering how badly we beat up on everyone not named Alabama.

I hear this a lot about Texas that year, but y'all built a pretty substantial lead after UT was shellshocked by the McCoy injury, having to play FR Garrett Gilbert, and yet, they came all the way back to 3 down late in the 4th quarter before finally pulling away with two very quick TDs. I'm not saying UT would have won if McCoy hadn't been injured, but you have to believe that would have been an epic finish in that game had he not. I don't think UT gets enough credit for 2009, and believe me, I am not a UT fan. I have no reason to believe they wouldn't have given Florida a similar fight.

What about our 1945 team? 10-0 Rose Bowl champs and comfortably beat everyone.
@ LSU 26-7
South Carolina 55-0
Tennessee 25-7
Georgia 28-14
@ Kentucky 60-19
@ Vanderbilt 71-0
Mississippi State 55-13
vs USC (Rose Bowl) 34-14
The AP went with Army even though they didn't have a damn thing to do with World War 2 and declined to play in a bowl.

Those were all very good teams. I approached it as most deserving of a NC however. 1978 was a heartbreaker but Alabama was a monster at the time

Also, 1939 for Tennessee. They didn't allow a single point all season until they lost in the Rose Bowl.

The 06 team was so talented on both sides of the ball, plus Jimbo Fisher as OC.

It's ridiculous that 94 Penn State didn't get a share of the title.

I agree,, but it isn't the first time it happened to us. We have to be the most screwed over in the polls in history

Since I started watching in the early 90s:
Alabama: 1994
Arkansas: 2011
Auburn: 2004
Florida: 2001
Georgia: 2012
Kentucky: 2007
LSU: 2006
Mississippi State: 2014
Missouri: 2007
Ole Miss: 2008
South Carolina: 2013
Tennessee: 2001
Texas A&M: 2012
Vanderbilt: 2013
I might even say 2010 for us. There's no way we should've lost 3 games that year.
