Nah that 1938 team was legit. They was voted by 10 different publications #1. And they beat an undefeated Oklahoma team in the bowl game. But UT does have 8 unclaimed titles they could claim if they wanted to and there is a strong case for all them. Which by bama method UT should claim 14 national titles.

Alabama could claim more if they used the Tennessee method.
Hell, Alabama doesn't even claim 1966, where they went undefeated after winning the national championship the previous 2 years, and yet Tennessee claims 1967 where they went 9-2.
I'll be the first to admit Alabama's 1941 claim is bad, but even it is not as bad as Tennessee's 1967 claim. At least 1941 was still only 3 years into the poll era, not 30.
