Not surprisingly, you didn't look very hard:

The Tigers were coached by Edgar Wingard and posted a perfect 10–0 record, outscoring opponents 442 to 11. Triple threat quarterback Doc Fenton led the nation in points scored. The Tigers were retro-picked as co-national champion by the National Championship Foundation, and the NCAA recognizes LSU as national champion for that season along with Penn

People tend to overlook the fact that schools like LSU, Arkansas, A&M and others had great seasons that were ignored back in the day. There was a tremendous bias against Southern teams and that lasted well into the 70s.
The main reason the Ivy League, which had been the gold standard of college football, opted to switch to the FCS (and doesn't even play in the FCS tourney) is that they realized they simply could not compete with the growing powers in the South.
