LSU is ahead if they used recognized national titles instead of claimed (4 to 1 instead of 3 to 2).

True though UGA has a slightly higher winning % and 2 more SEC titles.

It’s crazy how LSU and UGA are almost identical after 125 years of football
Auburn is right there in a lot of the metrics, too.
Really close.

I think of them as a step behind both
Maybe because we’ve more or less owned them for the last 12 years or so

It must suck to spend your life crying about asterisks in college football results. I'm glad LSU fans don't have to worry about these distinctions born of cheating.
Here are the facts according to the official NCAA record:
quote:
#5. Alabama
All-time record: 905-329-43
Win percentage: .726
First season: 1892
Actually since Alabama actually won the games, we are not crying. It is funny, I have the disks that show Alabama won the games..... to keep Alabama from being number 1 in almost everything college football, they had to hamper them
LSU just loses, so no need for asterisks

LSU and other SEC teams are inconsequential to Alabama. They are provincial, backwater, hick-town teams. Alabama is, and has been since the 20's, a national contender and player.
Since Alabama now owns the best winning percentage in college football, most NC's, etc... there is really only one grand prize left.
That is the prize of total win leader. Alabama is only trailing Michigan by
952-343-36 (0.729)
934-320-44 (0.737)
18 games in totality. Not bad considering that Michigan started playing football 13 years before Alabama, during which time they played 43 games.
In fact, even taking Alabama's forfeits and vacates into account, if all football teams started playing football in the year 1899, Alabama then has the most all time wins with 897.
All-Time Win Leader since 1899

With conference championships, did you include winning the east and the west? If not then I have a question

If we only have 8 SEC titles than Alabama has 905 wins. Can't have it both ways.

I just posted what Winsipedia had. Since it shows A&M with 18 and they haven't won the West I assume they aren't counting divisional championships, only if they won the conference championship game (or if they had the best conference record before championship games started; thanks Korin for clarifying.)
A&M's probably came from when they were in the Big12/SWC

It was best conference record before 92. Obviously there were years with co-champs. And years with teams playing a different amount of SEC games.

Thanks for clarifying. I didn't know how they determined it before conference championship games.

I was wondering about SCAR. It said they have 1 conference championship
Posted on 6/10/19 at 10:56 pm to cyclingout
They won the 1969 ACC Championship Sports Reference

Wow

And if 2 teams had the same SEC record then they were both co-champs regardless of a possible head-to-head result (like 1988).

They would've won the ACC in 84 for sure if they'd still been a member.

Dk, wasn't alive. How long was SCAR in the ACC?
