Kentucky was like retroactively granted a share of 1976 several years later
In 1976 UGA (the real SEC champion) went 10-2 (5-1) while UK went 8-4 (4-2). And oh yeah, since you're wondering...UGA and UK did play that year and UGA won 31-7 in lexington.
If UK wants to claim the '76 SEC title then they have no right to ever say anythign to bama about false claims.

The fact that this pisses you off so much is hilarious. The SEC recognizes Kentucky as Co-Champs that year. Sorry, not sorry I guess.
UK also went undefeated in SEC play, 10-1 overall in '77 but wasn't eligible for the championship because of probation. They would've likely been Co-Champs that year with Alabama.
