That is why I said, "late" like bowl season late
During bowl season, the only teams in the national title discussion are the ones playing in the game.

Auburn has won a title in that time frame and been in the discussion another five times
So please explain...
How old are you? In the 50 years I referenced the BCS/Playoff system has been in place less than half of that time.
'83, '89, '93 (edit), '04, '10, '13 so it was actually six …During the pre-BCS era the outcome of multiple bowl games determined the national title. In most years there were 5 or 6 teams with reasonable opportunities to be the national champions.

Pretty sure Auburn was not in the BCS title discussion in 2004.

Print the shirts?
Doesn't change that in '89, despite a "tie" for the conference championship, both Alabama and Tennessee were selected for the upper-tier bowls.... in '93, Auburn was banned from postseason play, and in '04, you weren't considered for the BCSNC.
So congrats on being overlooked in favor of Miami in '83?
