1925- Undefeated and won the Rose Bowl. That's undisputed NC.
1926- Tied Stanford in Rose Bowl. 9-0-1 Split Championship
1930- Another undefeated season and Rose Bowl win.
1934- Another undefeated season and Rose Bowl win.
Who would you guys give these NC's to?
1941- No argument. I don't know why we try to claim this one.
1961, 1964, and 1965. Can't argue with these. If you do then you have to give 1966 cause we won it in 65' then went undefeated in 66'. Who would you give it to? The voters didn't like our all white team and gave it to ND and Mich St even though they tied each other.
1973- I was at the ND loss 24-23. Don't deserve this one. But the AP voted prior to bowl so....
1978- Beat PSU in Sugar Bowl for NC. It was a split but I think its accurate.
1979, 1992 and 2009. No disputing.

Throw out 41' and 73' if you want to. You can't throw out the splits because neither team deserved it out right. But if you throw any out you have to give us 66'. I personally would claim 11 maybe 12.

But either way we have at least 8 more than LSU.... So what is your point?

If your fanbase can sleep better at night claiming MNC's before indoor plumbing, before WW2, before Television, before women shaved their arm pits, before the Louisiana Purchase, before the Mayflower, before the Germans bombed pearl harbor, before Tim Tebow..... Be my guess! I would rather claim MNC's that I could watch highlights of my team's win.. Or at least radio clips of big plays from championship seasons.. But if your only memories of those magical seasons consist of old telegraphs of Bama Vs. Harvard play by play... stone tablet inscriptions of winning scores, a classic work of prose of Bama's goal-line stand pinned by William Shakespere... Or because fricking Coach Bear Bryant said so... Then you must be a Bama fan... I'll take my crystal footballs anyday... Enjoy the veiw from the couch this weekend... 9-6 bitches..

(bama1959)...

Did Auburn win the MNC in 2004? As I recall...their school newspaper, coach, and "at least" one additional source claimed that they did. They would have just as much right to claim 04 as you would to claiming anything outside of 61, 79, 92, and 09. I've never seen a GUMP credit UA for 04 so you would be the first.

The point is that most other schools would probably claim 4-8 MNC's where you claim 12+. You and your fellow GUMPTARDS want to dispute the article because it came from an Auburn source. It's fact based so why does it matter where it came from?
