re: Question about some conference titles in football.

WTF UGA played 6 SEC teams in 66' MSU, AU, Miss, Tech, UK, & UF. UNC was a non conference game. I guess maybe you forgot tech was in the SEC at that time or something and thats why you tried to justify UNC as a conference game.

But per UGA directly they only went 5-0 in conference play

No, he's right. Tech withdrew from the SEC in '64. In '66, Bama won the SEC title at 6-0. UG didn't play the required six conference games to qualify for the title (since the Tech game no longer counted in the standings), so they were allowed to designate UNC as a shadow "conference game" instead--never mind the fact that UG had TWO YEARS to replace Tech on their schedule with another (real) SEC team. In the end, Bama got kind of screwed here and had to share the title with UG.
