re: Is there a consensus #2 football program in the SEC, historically?

Like how UGA has historically played by far the SEC’s weakest schedule of the Big 6 teams? Yes that too should be mentioned.

The one Auburn guy actually offered the stuff below. Good info, but one would have to dig really really deep and into out of conference schedules. For example Georgia for years and years played Georgia Tech and three other non-conference games, back when there was a 6 game league schedule. Clemson was one of the other teams a lot of the time, but they sucked pretty hard in the 60s and 70s.

I know that Bear Bryant played a top-level teams when he was at Alabama. I don't know about the rest of the goobers in the Big 6.

This is a much better way of showing all time conference SOS: Games played against Final AP ranked SEC opponents (1936-2022)

Auburn- 207
Alabama- 192
Florida- 192
LSU- 190
Tennessee- 179
Georgia- 167

This is why just looking at conference titles and conference win% can be very deceiving. Obviously one of these has played historically a much more difficult conference schedule. And another team has played a much easier one.
