I'm talking about the football team obviously because that's the sport we play in the Southeastern Conference.

All this talk about "claimed" National Championships has me wondering how many each SEC has a stake for.

Please list the number of National Championships won by your schools team, the year(s) they were won, and the records from those years. TIA
I'll start:

Auburn has 9 National Football Championships

-1913: 8-0... out scored opponents 224-13

-1914: 8-0-1... Didn't allow a single point all season long out scoring opponents 193-0. The tie was a 0-0 tie vs UGA at Piedmont Park in Atlanta.

-1957: 10-0... out scored opponents 207-28 en route to an undisputed AP National Football Championship

-1958: 9-0-1... completed two straight seasons and only one tie, 7-7 to SEC rival Georgia Tech in Atlanta, en route to a Montgomery Full Season Press National Championship

-1983: 11-1... Only loss coming in the second game to #3 Texas. Beat #5 Florida who was the team that beat Miami. Auburn was ranked #3 going into their Sugar Bowl win over top 5 Michigan, was jumped by Miami in the AP poll after the #1 and #2 teams lost. Seeing the criminality in AU being jumped Auburn was voted the rightful National Football Champion of 1983 by the New York Times.

-1993...11-0. Beat both teams that played for the SECCG, but was banned from post season play after being railroaded by the NCAA with false allegations in a scheme thought up and paid for by Alabama boosters looking to bring down the Auburn football dynasty of the late 80's. Auburn was still recognized as National Football Champions by those recognizing the injustice done to AU, including by the National Championship Foundation.

-2004: 13-0... SECCG and Sugar Bowl Champs. One of the most talented teams in SEC history stacked with future NFL players. Oklahoma sucks, Auburn was better. 'Nuff said. USC cheated and vacated the title, leaving the Auburn Tigers as undisputed National Football Champions of the 2004 football season.

-2010... 14-0. Champions of the SECCG and BCSNCG. Led by the unstoppable duo of Heisman winning QB Cam Newton and Lombardi Award winning DT Nick Fairley.

-2013... 12-2. SECCG Champs. Listen is a little more disputable than the others but hear me out. Auburn was the team of destiny in 2013. God shines his approval on the 2013 Auburn Tigers in the form of the Miracle at Jordan-Hare vs Georgia and the Kick Six vs Alabama. That was until mere mortals, in the form of the Tallahassee Police Department, decided to spit in God's face and take things into their own hands by allowing a known serial rapists walk the streets because of his football prowess and success. Auburn still fought valiantly falling in the final 17 seconds. Without Winston Auburn would have certainly blown out FSU. In light of the FACT that Jameis Winston should have been in jail or suspended at least, and not playing in the game, Auburn should go ahead and claim the 2013 BCSNC seeing as how the NCAA will certainly and inevitably be forced to strip Jameis Winston of his eligibility, his Heisman Trophy, and thusly all games he competed in including the BCSNCCG.






Thanks for your time reading my post and learning more about the storied history of Auburn Football. I'm looking forward to your responses and learning more about the other programs in the SEC

Bro... We are talking about Football you Yankee bastard.

Secondly, idk how many times I have to tell you a dual tournament isn't the National Championship.

Ohio State won the Wrestling National Championship in 2015.
Iowa came in second place.
Mizzou finished 5th and I don't think a single one of your wrestlers made the finals. That's an embarrasing showing for the team that was ranked #1 going into the National Championship tournament.

Your right. Auburn was split National Champion with Iowa in 1958.


LSU played a candy arse schedule and pussed out on playing the reigning Kings of the SEC, Auburn.

Having one play that was the only CFB play most of the country saw get you some hype doesn't win you a NC

It's "you're" not "your". Your Auburn education is showing

No, Auburn chickened out on playing LSU in 57 and 58. Thats the only reason they remained undefeated for two years. LSU and Auburn didn't play each other from 1942-69

LSU was ranked #1 in the polls before that play ever occurred. LSU was already respected and feared before Billy Cannon's 89 yard punt return vs Ole Miss

I was actually thinking about this yesterday. Auburn used to have a damn good wrestling program. We dropped wrestling in the early 1980's due to Title IX. (had to make minor sports funds available to womens athletics.)

Swede Umbach was our coach. Dude was legend. We were GOOD. Still pissed this happened. Dont begrudge the ladies their sports, but this was a real loss.

Equestrian at Auburn is also a Title IX equality sport. They have no mens team specifically because of Title IX.
