Alabama senate proposes bill to have Auburn claim 9 titles

Auburn is officially recognized as having won two national championships in college football, but now a legal motion is in place to have the school claim many more.

Auburn’s two national titles came in 1957 and 2010. They also believe they have claims to six more national championships — 1910, 1913, 1914, 1958, 1983, 1993 and 2004. The claims to the ’93 and ’04 titles make some sense as the squad went undefeated both years. The titles in the 1910s are plausible since the AP did not assign a national champion then. They did not lose in 1958 but had a tie, which would have put them in the running for a title, and in 1983, they had one loss just like the other top teams.
