Blame other programs like Michigan and Pittsburgh who did it first (and are worse).


So by that rationale, Auburn can "claim" like 10 NC's.

Still waiting for you to back up your claim.

And yeah, I called you out because I already know you can't.

1910 - Led by head coach Mike Donahue (1904–1906, 1908–1922), the team went 6–1 while outscoring opponents 176–9.

1913 - Went 8–0, outscoring opponents 224–13. Champions of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association.

1914 - The Tigers finished as SIAA champions with a record of 8–0–1 , 5–0–1 in the SIAA. The Tigers didn’t let an opponent outscore score all season, 193–0. The 0-0 tie came against Georgia.

1983 - Finished the season with an 11–1 record and won their first SEC title since 1957. No. 1 Nebraska and No. 2 Texas lost their bowl games while No. 3 Auburn defeated No. 8 Michigan State in the Sugar Bowl. The No. 5 Miami Hurricanes, who knocked off Nebraska, jumped from 5th to claim the AP National Championship. The Tigers did finish ranked first in a few polls including the computer rankings utilized by The New York Times.

1993 – The only major college football team to finish the season undefeated with a record of 11–0. The Tigers were on NCAA probation though. In the fall of 1991 Eric Ramsey, a former Auburn defensive back, revealed taped conversations detailing how he received money from of the Auburn football program. The ban meant no TV, no SEC Championship and no bowl game. The National Champions Foundation recognized Auburn as one of its 1993 national champions.

2004 – Despite a 13–0 record which included the SEC title, the Tigers were left out of the BCS National Championship game. The BCS ranked Southern Cal and Oklahoma No. 1 and No. 2 respectively. Auburn settled for the Sugar Bowl and defeated No. 9 Virginia Tech. The Trojans had the national title vacated years later after an investigation concluded that running back Reggie Bush and his family obtained impermissible benefits.

You always use one sight, which is comical as hell, like that is the definitive proof of your argument. bama's "claim" to fame is "claiming" a NC if anybody recognized them. If Auburn did the same thing, we would have more than 2.

Dude is always posting the same ncaa record book acting like the arbitrary list of polls in the book is the authority for mythical national championships when the NCAA does not even recognize national champions in football.

It is pathetic. It is one of many sources of many different compilations of polls, nothing more.

Yet dude talks out of his arse constantly like the arbitrary shite his arbitrary arse wants to use is some sort of definitive source.

I call him out from time to time to prove a point which he can never back up anything I call him out on.

He can sure as frick post the shite out of that same compilation though.

The NCAA doesn't recognize any NC's in football. That was your first misstep.

Yep. Dumbass was totally unaware more selectors picked AU as NC in 1983 than Miami.

After being educated about it, he just went back to posting the same tired shite like 8 times in one thread. He doesn't reason well, he just has linking to that compilation down cold.

Of course you're free to claim whatever you'd like, but it'll still be far less than Alabama, and we're free to laugh at y'all putting 1993 and 2004 in your sig (s).

So why did bama wait until like 1984 to double their NC totals?

quote:

The NCAA record book recognizes Alabama with seven "consensus" national championships -- the six by Bryant and 1992.


quote:

The SEC follows the NCAA approach by starting its count at 1950 and recognizes Alabama with seven.


quote:

"I tried to make Alabama football look the best it could look and just make it as great as it could possibly be," Atcheson said. "I was a competitor myself with the other schools, and what they bragged about and boasted about, I wanted people to know the best about my school."

So the NCAA changed their record books after this?

Wrong again. For someone who posts so much on this topic, I think it is safe to say you have embarrassed yourself quite thoroughly.
quote:


While the NCAA has never officially endorsed a championship team, it has documented the choices of several selectors in the official NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision Records


It documents SOME selectors. It neither recognizes or awards a champion in football, ever.

Understand, documenting someone's opinion is not the same as recognizing a champion.

This is often invoked in reference to American college football because the NCAA does not sponsor a playoff-style tournament or recognize official national champions for the Football Bowl Subdivision
