0% bogus claims depsite the push by some ignorant Auburn fans to change it.
This is hilarious considering we could claim several titles under the same way Bama did. We just have pussy admins not willing to do so.

10. Ole Miss: 3 claims, 1959, 1960 and 1962 are bogus, 100% bogus claims.
NCAA website lists us at 1960. Doesn’t matter what criteria you think is real.

1950 is legit for Kentucky. UK, OU and UT all finished with 1 loss.
We lost to UT.
UT lost to 4 win MSU
OU lost to us in the Sugar Bowl.
You don't lose your last game of the season and then get to claim you're the champs. Sorry.

So what you are saying is anything in the 40's is bogus. I guess because of the war and whatnot.
I think its just 1942. Ohio State clearly won it under the system at the time and Georgia's title was retroactive or something

Vandy, Miss St, Mizzou and South Carolina have 0 claims, but it should be noted they all have atleast 1 claim,
Bama already claims MSU's despite being in third place in the SEC that year.

You have one title that Auburn could really claim and dont if you are using the same criteria Bama does and that is 1913 which you should claim

But why would we go by the "system at the time"? Isn't it better to go by feelings of the now?

The 1964 season ended with controversy as to whether Alabama or Arkansas should be recognized as the national champion:
Alabama finished the regular season at 10–0 and, ranked No. 1 in the final AP and UPI Coaches Polls, is considered their national champions. The AP and UPI did not conduct post-bowl game polling at that time, so, despite its loss in the 1965 Orange Bowl to No. 5 Texas, Alabama remained the national champion in the AP and UPI polls.
Arkansas, ranked No. 2 in the AP and UPI polls, defeated No. 6 Nebraska in the Cotton Bowl, had also defeated common opponent Texas in Austin, and finished as the only undefeated and untied major college team. In polling conducted after the bowl games, a five-man committee of the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) selected Arkansas as the winner of the Grantland Rice Trophy as the top college football team in the country. Arkansas received four of five first-place votes, with Texas receiving the fifth vote. Alabama did not receive a single vote for first, second, or third place.[2] Arkansas is also recognized as the 1964 national champion by Billingsley Report, College Football Researchers Association, Helms Athletic Foundation, National Championship Foundation, Poling System, Sagarin, and Sagarin (ELO-Chess).[3]

So you answered the question. The system of the time was to award before the bowl.

Might wanna sit this one out considering y'all claim a year in which you were banned from playing in a bowl.

Any of you arkansas boys old enough to remember Danny Brabham LB/HB from the early 1960’s? All-Southwest Conference (1962) and the third leading rusher in the SWC. He was the first-round draft pick for the Houston Oilers. He was my papa and everybody I talked to said he crossed that goal line against texas in 1962

1957 Auburn was awarded the AP title. Its legit. Like 3/4 of Notre Dame's titles are when they didnt play in a bowl game. Notre Dame didnt start playing in bowl games till the early 70s

You're liteerally too stupid
Holy frick, you’re still bleeding all over the place and deflecting
. I can’t believe how much this affects your sense of self worth All we want is a method. Don’t care about the number. Anyway, since you’re incapable of directly answering a question or forming a lucid thought I have summarized your method of accounting for titles. You can just copy and paste this going forward when you’re asked.
quote:
SOJ’s System of Recognizing National Championships in College Football
Preamble. I am incapable of suggesting a method that can be consistently applied across years to independently determine the national champions in college football in any given year. Therefore, a program’s claims shall be calculated per the conditions set forth in Articles 1 and 2.
Article 1. I will blindly accept any number a program claims as long as the following conditions are met: that the total number makes me happy.
Article 2. In such situations where the total does not make me happy, I will reject such accounting provided by the program and provide a substitute number, which is apparently totally random and not based on any provided rationale (please see preamble for more information).
That’s literally the argument you’re making in this thread.

Holy shite, 10 pages and no one seems to know how this shite works. It's not about "claiming titles" it's about acknowledging TROPHIES AWARDED. Look in the trophy case and count the number of trophies awarded by reputable organizations. The OP basically laid out that since 1936 the sportswriters, and later the coaches association, are the only two organizations whose championship awards are worth acknowledging.
Works for me bro- at least you’re capable of making a stance unlike that orange guy. But you have triggered Arkansas fans hard with this white knighting for Alabama’s ‘64 claim. Why you gotta do the hogs like that?

Checks calendar. Yep, we were due for another petulant Bama fan to whine about '64. We should have a best helmet/fight song thread soon.
After a few years you can predict the off season threads fairly well.
