NCAA Champinship history has LSU a piece of the 1908 Championship.

1908—LSU, Pennsylvania NCF, HAF, NCF

Who is LSU not to recognize it??
We were undefeated 10-0

It's needs to be recognized .

The 1936 is debatable :

1936

LSU 9–1–1— Bernie Moore----SR, WS
Minnesota—7–1—Bernie Bierman---AP, BR, DiS, DuS, HAF, L, NCF, PS
Pittsburgh—8–1–1—Jock Sutherland---BS, CFRA, HS

1908 should be claimed.

Other than that, no

No imo

However, there are sites that show LSU having 11 claimed/unclaimed NC's though.

Eta: maybe 1908

1908 is debatable just because there was no commonly accepted way to decide the NC before the polls.

Other than that? No way. Claiming BS national titles like Ole Miss, Tennessee, A&M, and now Auburn is for pussies.

Why not? Other schools do it to boost their image.

There was no official system to crown a national champion back then. I think if your team was #1 in any poll at the end of the year then they at least have claim to a shared national title.

Where are they getting 12 SEC Championships from? I count 8 on the recognized site. I am guessing they are claiming that from probation years which is a silly thing to do. Makes them look very insecure that they can't just be proud of their legitimate history, (which is something to actually be proud of) but instead try to one up schools the SEC schools that are slightly ahead of them in reality.Truly delusional fan base.

we could claim 1908 and have 4. we actually should claim it because everyone and their brother gave us that year, its not like auburns bs.

as far as bama, the only bullshite natty they claim is 1941 (or maybe its 1942). all their other nc are legit. i hate bama, but 10 coaches/ap nc in the poll era and 4 legit ones before the poll era is impressive. auburn is silly. they have 2.

its a shame bama claims 1941, i think they did that a few years after bear died. they should take that one year away,because all their other ones are solid. thats still ridiculous, 14 ncs without claiming 1941. feck bama anyway.

If anyone has a claim to 1908 it's LSU. To not claim it is a disservice to the Tigers who played on that team. The others we should leave alone.

Gary Danielson said during the 2011 SEC Championship that LSU deserved at least a split of the natty of Bama were to beat us. It's a shame they had to beat us in that fashion. We'd have a great argument for one.

1908 is probably the only rational added title.

Maybe we don't want 1908. That's the last time the Cubs won the World Series. Why chance splitting a curse with them?

No, no, no.

We dont need to copy the BS that Auburn is doing. Nor do i really care about what happened in 1908. Completely different game back then.

I think they are claiming for 2012-2013 season as well...just like 1993 - no bowl game or conference championship-so they should claim it...doesnt matter if they lost every game. I heard the other day that they were all set to defend their 2014 runners-up trophy.
