Correct.

4 questionable and 3 that are just laughable.

Careful, Tennessee fans might get mad that you post about another team.

You should really try GROK. A couple are bogus, but all are more legit than Alabama's 1941 title. Remember, Alabama started this crap, so we needed to do this a long long time ago.

1910 6-1 Maxwell Ratings (Loren Maxwell), College Football Rankings (Kyle Matschke) Auburn claims this based on retroactive mathematical rating systems that ranked them No. 1, despite not being recognized by major selectors like Billingsley or National Championship Foundation (which picked Harvard). The team, coached by Mike Donahue, had a strong Southern season but lost to Texas; the claim follows precedents where schools retroactively adopt minor selectors to highlight unbeaten or dominant stretches (Auburn went 22-2-2 from 1910-1914). This is not in the NCAA records book as a major selector title but is justified by Auburn as aligning with historical re-evaluations.
1913 8-0 Billingsley Report (Margin of Victory formula) Undefeated season under Mike Donahue; listed in NCAA records book as a recognized selector title.
1914 8-0-1 James Howell’s Power Ratings System, Montgomery Full Season Selector Auburn justifies this claim via retroactive power ratings and a full-season selector that ranked them No. 1, emphasizing their unbeaten record (tie with Georgia) and dominance in the South under Mike Donahue. Major selectors like Houlgate and Parke Davis picked Army instead, but Auburn points to these minor systems as valid under NCAA guidelines for historical claims.
1957 10-0 Associated Press (AP Poll), Billingsley, Football Research, Helms, National Championship Foundation, Poling, Sagarin, Sagarin (ELO-Chess), Williamson Consensus national champion; undefeated season under Ralph "Shug" Jordan, No. 1 in AP Poll.
1958 9-0-1 James Howell’s Power Ratings System, Montgomery Full Season Selector Despite finishing No. 10 in the AP Poll (behind undefeated LSU at No. 1), Auburn claims this based on minor rating systems that valued their unbeaten record (tie with Florida) and defensive prowess under Shug Jordan. The team was on probation and ineligible for bowls, which hurt contemporary rankings, but retroactive selectors like Howell and the Montgomery poll (a full-season analysis) ranked them No. 1. Auburn argues this fits NCAA-recognized practices for pre-poll era adjustments, similar to other schools claiming split titles.
1983 11-1 Billingsley Report (Margin of Victory), FACT, Football Research, Sagarin, New York Times Finished No. 3 in AP Poll but listed in NCAA records book; won Sugar Bowl under Pat Dye.
1993 11-0 National Championship Foundation Undefeated but on probation (no bowl); listed in NCAA records book under Terry Bowden.
2004 13-0 Darryl Perry Ratings, GBE College Football Ratings Undefeated SEC champions under Tommy Tuberville but excluded from BCS title game (USC vs. Oklahoma); claim based on minor selectors valuing perfect record. (Also highest ranked team in the final AP poll)
2010 14-0 Anderson & Hester, AP, BCS, Berryman, Billingsley, Colley, Dunkel, FWAA, Massey, NFF, Sagarin, USA Today (Coaches), Wolfe Consensus national champion; won BCS title game under Gene Chizik.
