Just curious as to your reasoning



Using today's tie breaker rules, the ones listed had better overall records.

I'll buy that now that you changed your pick for 1988 from Auburn to LSU.

The truth is that they "should" be shared championships as they are. I don't see why you would try to apply non-existant rules after the fact.

How do you figure? At the end of the regular season in 1989:
Alabama 10-1
Tennessee 10-1
Auburn 9-2

Using today's tie breaker rules, Auburn would be removed and Alabama would win due to the head to head with Tennessee.

In 1981 using that criteria, yes, UGA would win as their overall record before the bowls was 9-1; Alabama was 8-1-1.
