Same as Texas and Michigan. The only metric for blue blood they use is beating pre segregation teams.


So we are just going to act like Texas wasn't the 2nd best program in college football behind USC for the 1st decade of the 2000's.

I guess we could re-write history if you'd like but then we'd have to start looking into the Newton family's account statements

since 1950 LSU is the 6th ranked SEC team in victories

Alabama
UGA
UF
Auburn
UT
LSU

Only since Nick Saban came in 2000 and built the program has LSU been a consistent SEC contender. Rather than maroons like William Taylor dissing Saban, all LSU fans should be thankful for the guy.

To add on to this I'd say LSU's uncontested titles are 1958, 2003 and 2019. At this point LSU has more legitimate NCs than Tennessee does (post 1950 or post-integration).

1951 and 1998 are uncontested for Tennessee.

At this point, Sam Houston State University has more national titles than Mississippi State.

You're confusing facts with opinions again, State! Did they not cover this in your GED class?

Fact: Sam Houston State University won a national title today.

Fact: State has no national titles.

Opinion: Tennessee's 1950 and 1967 national titles aren't "legitimate."

USC 04 was legit paying their players and still claim it. Until their is an agreed upon method and metrics for past championship, it is as legit as anyone else's claimed title.

While the BCS vacated USC’s title in ‘04, the AP did not; so it’s still recognized as a poll title and I can’t think of any schools that don’t claim poll titles...

Auburn got screwed in ‘83; they played the toughest schedule in the nation and their only loss was to a top 5 team. That was a great team; they had Bo Jackson to go along with a great defense...

Aubbies always claim this one. You were on probation. Get over it.

1983 and 2004 were way more egregious.


2004 wasn't that impressive of a season; that is why the voters and the computers did not give them a shot at the NC.

2004-Auburn (SEC)
9/4 vs. Louisiana-Monroe (5-6) W 31 0
9/11 @ *Mississippi State (3-8) W 43 14
9/18 vs. *Louisiana State (9-3) W 10 9
9/25 vs. Citadel (non-IA) W 33 3
10/2 @ *Tennessee (10-3) W 34 10
10/9 vs. Louisiana Tech (6-6) W 52 7
10/16 vs. *Arkansas (5-6) W 38 20
10/23 vs. *Kentucky (2-9) W 42 10
10/30 @ *Mississippi (4-7) W 35 14
11/13 vs. *Georgia (10-2) W 24 6
11/20 @ *Alabama (6-6) W 21 13
12/4 vs. *Tennessee (10-3) W 38 28

They played 6 teams with losing seasons, one Double A team, a 3-8 Ms. State, a 2-9 Kentucky, a 4-7 Mississippi, a 5-6 Arkansas, 2 teams with break even seasons, and played one good team twice.

Finally, they scheduled Louisiana Tech, Louisiana Monroe, & Citadel all in the same season.

Impressive season? I don't think so, and not many voters did either.

There aren't any. Every team named AP/Coaches poll NC claims it.
