re: Is Auburn gonna claim 7 more natties?

They're trying to claim past titles. At least schools that have done this before have done them sort of close to the time that they were named champions by a poll. Auburn could have some claims except for 2004 because of the BCS

No school has claimed anything besides AP and Coaches poll titles in the past ~50 years.

If you wanna claim anything older than that, you're gonna need some good criteria. Any season where you had a perfect season is a valid candidate. I only see 1913 as a legit claim. Anything pre 1936 is just sort of the wild west anyway and you have tons of people claiming all sorts of stuff.
