    better than making up some bogus "people's national champions" in 2004 like Awbarn did....That's 13 championships as voted or ranked appropriately. If 13 seems like too many, then just say 8. Still better than most. We won 8 outright, but the other 5 were shared titles.

    AUbsessed, and no, your 1941 claim where you finished like 25th in the country and 4th in the SEC or whatever is not better then AUs "people's national champions" claim (and I was in school at AU in 2004, and don't remember that). Are you talking about Tubs giving his players rings?

    1978
    USC 11-1
    Bama 11-1

    USC beats Bama at home 3rd game of the year, yet Bama still claims part of the NC.

    LOOOOOL
