Replace 1950 Kentucky with 1950 Tennessee. Both finished with 1 loss, and Tennessee beat Kentucky.
Yes, they did...however, UT's 1 loss in 1950 was to a team that finished the year with a losing record while Kentucky beat the AP/UPI #1 ranked (and previously undefeated) Oklahoma in the Sugar Bowl. Also, Kentucky was recognized as the sole SEC champion that year (they finished 5-1, UT 4-1)...

Again, sorry. Tennessee beat Kentucky and then was the only top 5 team to win their bowl game and was named national champions by the majority of selectors.
