Again, your position is national champions did not exist in those years?
You realize Tennessee's 1938 national title is only from after the fact polls, right? They finished #2 in the newly minted AP poll. So that is a farce.
You realize the 1940 Tennessee national title team lost their bowl game, right? They finished #4 in the AP Poll. So that is a farce.
You realize the 1950 Tennessee national title team finished #3 in the coaches and #4 in the AP, right? So that is a farce.
You realize the 1951 and 1967 Tennessee national title teams lost their bowl games, right? So those are farces.
Tennessee claims 6 national titles. Using your logic they have 1.

Ok...so since there were no polls you just go back and claim them? Got it.
Why does UA feel the need to try to retroactively claim championships? That Little Dick Syndrome must run strong in Tuscaloosa.
FINE! UT started playing football in 1891.
We are now claiming the following years. There were no polls. So they belong to us.

Don't you wish Bama had as many championships as Tennessee?
I know it sounds ridiculous, but no more ridiculous than Bama's retroactive claims.

No - there were polls and systems created after the fact, and since there was no poll at the time then those + winning the biggest bowl game in America + going undefeated = claiming a national title.
It's not that hard to follow.
So, once again, I assume you agree Tennessee has 1 national title, right? If not - I'd love to hear an explanation.

I'm good with that.
Now, let's hear your explanation for the Little Dick Syndrome that causes Bammers to feel the need to claim titles you do not have!

I'd be fine claiming only AP/Coaches poll titles and just referring to the pre-AP bowl teams as Rose Bowl winning teams.
1941 is a pathetic joke

What is it about three in a row that it is such a big deal? The better story is three transfer QBs in a row
Kyler Murray was "wow, what a coincidence".
Hurts would be "hey, maybe we need to rethink this. It's pretty clear Oklahoma runs a wide open offense, has a talent disparity with their conference, and is just plugging guys in each season".
