re: Let’s recognize the 56th anniversary of Alabama’s 1964 national championship

Bama does not claim 1945 when they won the SEC, were 10-0, averaging winning 43-8, beating 2 loss LSU 26-7, 1 loss UT 25-7 and 2 loss UGA 28-14, crushing USC in the Rose Bowl. It was a great team but finished 2 in the AP.

Bama does not claim 1966, the 2 time defending NC, they went 11-0 giving up 37 points on the year, crushing Neb in the Sugar Bowl. The title was given to once tied ND. That was the first year of the Super Bowl and in the winning locker room on live TV they asked Lombardi if they were now the undisputed champions of football. He said he didn't know, they had not played Alabama yet. It was almost as good as the trophy, but not quite :-) Finished number 3 in the AP.
