Of course, in the case of Alabama, that isn't the real story . UA won 31 games, on the field, that the ncaa decided should be forfeited or vacated. Meanwhile, Auburn was docked televised games and couldn't go to a bowl game, after their coaches paid players. It's totally arbitrary. More proof of that: Auburn paid for Cam Newton and got away with it. Ole Miss is about to get pounded.

The games were forfeited/vacated for a reason. Otherwise we have 11 SEC titles instead of 8, right?

I personally believe Florida has a right to claim those titles. But that's just me.

My point about the forfeits was about the arbitrary fashion in which the ncaa does infractions, and surely there aren't many people that would debate that. I will note that I didn't even mention that fact till another poster posted the percentages.

For the record, I count 1984 among UF SEC titles. I don't know what were the other two years. I do know, though, that since 1990, UF has shown the nation how good it can be and I don't expect that to change. Watching the UF vs UGA rivalry the next several years should be fun.
