Also, I swear Tennessee did not claim 6 titles years ago. I remember much less.

They only claimed 1951 and 1998 for the longest time, then, out of nowhere, had 4 additional claims. IMO, if you don’t have a #1 ranking in the AP, UPI, Coaches, BCS, or CFP then your claim is bullshite

The retro-active claiming of national titles is pathetic

Right, I knew something was off. When we played them at Neyland stadium like 5-6 years ago I noticed the 6 titles and was so confused.

I couldn’t remember if it was 2 or 4. 2 to 6 titles is such a ridiculously large jump

SDS did Podcast episode about this last summer. TN had an AD that claimed a Natty for no reason other than to add more prestige. He wasn't shy about that either.
