None of these would exist without "help" from some very generous off-field "support".

All of these teams were voted into statuses and opportunities their on-field merits didn't warrant.

With the exception of '41, these are all poll titles. They are given to the team that finished 1st in a poll. Voters are polled for their opinions on the top teams, those votes are compiled into a poll, and the top team in the poll gets the trophy. That's the point of a poll. Don't agree with the poll? Tough shite.

You forgot Colt McCoy getting hurt in 2009.

Bama backing into the BCS after getting dominated by Johnny Football in 2012.

And 4th and 25 getting them in in 2015.

In fact, with LSU's split title in 2003, Saban has never won a legit championship.

He's just a luckier Mike Shula.
