Ha, no. You are fat and suffer from multiple medical issues. Don't let the Internet let you think that you can hide that...

MSU weather forecasting team has won multiple national championships. 3 or 4 consecutive if I'm not mistaken. Dynasty of the weather world

The FWAA wasn't exactly a bogus claim. Alabama claims more bogus titles and yet nobody calls them out on it except Auburn and Tennessee fans


Alabama claims 1 bogus title and pretty sure everybody talks about it. I mean you're talking about it right now.

Or you can use the NCAA instead of Wiki.

https://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/stats/champs_records_book/Overall.pdf (page 9)


According to that website (page 7) Auburn has won a total of 148 individual national championships. Alabama has only won 77. As for team national championships, Auburn has won 14 while Bama has only won 10.






Bama fans in 3.... 2.... 1....

And Auburn claims a year they were on a bowl ban


I guess you're ignorant of how football national championships use to work.

Because for some odd reason Div I (now better known as FBS) football national championships are still even today not officially recognized by the NCAA.

Don't know if I'd call it "cool" but until the late 60's, virtually all polls were decided based on the regular season. Bowl games were viewed as nothing more than exhibition games and a reward for a good season. It was not uncommon for a team to win the national championship and then turn around and lose their bowl game.

Which has nothing to do with the fact that y'all claim a year while being banned from postseason play.

You're not the sharpest tool in the shed are ya? Let me try to get down to your level. When Auburn was awarded the national championship in 1957, postseason play didn't have jack shite to do with national championships.

Roughly half of the meteorologists on cable TV are MSU grads.
