I corrected 1993 Alabama to 1994 Alabama. My list is mainly comprised of 1 loss teams.
1985 Tennessee went 9-1-2. Record may not look good overall, but they throttled Miami's national championship hopes in the Sugar Bowl. Had Tennessee not had those ties, they would have been national champs.
I considered 2001 Florida and Tennessee, 2006 LSU, 2007 Georgia, but they all had 2 losses.
I thought the SEC was rather weak in 2002, 2004 and 2005 which is why I didn't factor in Auburn and Georgia.

2004 Auburn would have kicked the shite out of Oklahoma.
Using common opponents, Auburn beat Tennessee by 2 touchdowns in the SEC Title Game. The same Tennessee crushed an A&M team that Oklahoma barely beat by over 4 touchdowns.
