The SEC said we could still win the conference during the 84 season if we took our medicine and didn't appeal to play in the Sugar Bowl. Then they went back on their word in the spring of 85 (thanks to Dooley) and voted 6-3 to vacate it.

Dooley also kept Clemson out of the SEC

when Free Shoes chickened out in 1991; Clemson was a clear favorite to get the Seminoles spot, but Dooley would not allow it

you should consider that a draw...

Yep. It still seems weird that it should matter whether the title was taken from UF before the season or after the season, for the purposes of counting LSU versus Tennessee.
