I guess, if you claim titles like Bama does. Everybody knows the only ones that matter from that era are AP and UPI.
We are simply discussing comparative legitimacy. The 1964 Arkansas Razorbacks football team was named National Champions by both major polling organizations who conducted their polls at the conclusion of the bowl season. As you probably know, the AP and UPI both released their final poll prior to bowl games back then.
Comparatively, the 1935 LSU basketball team wasn't selected a champion by anyone of the era, nor were they selected retroactively.

I don't think anybody associated with LSU actually claims that title. But truth be said, in 1964 bowl games were not considered when determining the national championship. Furthermore, the champion as deemed by AP/UPI voters were the only ones universally accepted by media and fans alike.
