91 Alabama went 11-1 and finished #5.

No it was 11-1. Alabama wouldn't lose again until mid-1993.

Well, ok.
Why didn't we claim a NC in '91?

What are we up to now? 17?

Technically to everyone but UNC in the bowl game. But LSU ended the 31 game winning streak.

The only team to go 0-12 and still make a bowl game.

1-12
Made the SEC title game and bowl. The Gator Bowl win did count. Langham was sitting by then.

Right, but y'all were 0-12 before the bowl win.

That must be why they had to be one of Bama's permanent opponents from '92 to '02.

8-3-1 before the bowl game. It became 1-12 in 1995. Since we are talking specifics.
Posted on 7/28/15 at 10:14 am to CapstoneGrad06
Which means y'all were officially 0-12 before bowl.

Nah. I know why you said that, but I'm going to respond with an actual answer.
Vanderbilt and Alabama had been playing every year since 1926. When the SEC decided to go to the 5-2-1 format, lots of schools had to make some choices. The Big 6 were going to play each other as cross-division games, to balance the traditional powers' scheduling. That's why LSU plays Florida every year. When they decided the other traditional rivals, they let the schools make decisions and suggestions if the first choices couldn't be worked out.
Alabama had been playing Vanderbilt continuously longer than any other East school, including Tennessee. Auburn had been playing Florida longer than they had Tennessee, so the Auburn-Tennessee rivalry was no longer played every year. There was no way Alabama-Tennessee or Auburn-Georgia were going away because of the traditional nature of the games and the teams being in the "Big 6." So Alabama and Auburn both chose the East opponent they had been playing the longest, other than their traditional rivals. Is that the reason LSU had Kentucky as their other traditional rival after Florida?

Back in 2003, two buddies and I sat in a sea of red in Bryant-Denny and enjoyed our Tigers bludgeon the Tide 27-3. That was fun.
