Seriously, Auburn fans have got to quit caring about it. Everyone knows they lie about how many they have. No one needs anyone to post it... again

They do? I claim 8 national titles for Alabama. Then again, I can only speak for myself, even if I'm lumped in with a crowd.

there was one in the late 60's that we were screwed out of. so, go ahead and claim 41'.

Hell, that's my logic for claiming 1967...

Why don't you clarify what Bama standards are for us?

Don't worry, I'll wait.

If we're just going by AP/Coaches titles, then UT only has 2, so feel free to claim at least a couple more.

We were screwed out of '45 and '66 so it really doesn't bother me. Bama has so many titles it's almost pointless to argue the minor points with you fans of lesser programs.

1966. They fukd Bama out of a 3 peat. Started off #1 and went undefeated. Meanwhile ND and MSU tied each other and finished 1-2 that year. One of the bigger crocks in CFB.

I feel it probably wouldn't surprise you at all that you are part of the minority.

Why do you not claim anything other than poll era titles? The links, below, clearly state they're legitimate:

I know some State fans that claim 41' as one too
I don't seriously but only if Alabama tries to. I have the '41 MSU year book in my possession. It was the year my dad graduated from State. It has our glorious Orange Bowl victory in it

It's a compromise. I claim poll era titles, rival fans don't bitch incessantly about it. I'm satisfied with 8.

Most people feel the undefeated Rose Bowl teams deserve their recognition. If it is your opinion that those accomplishments are worthless, then fine. But don't hate on other people that have a grasp of and an appreciation for college football's history pls.

Bama has somewhere around 10 legit ones. Why can't we just be proud of those 10 (which can compete with anyone) instead of claiming crap like 41 that makes it look like all of our titles are frauds?
