1908 10-0-0 National Championship Foundation
1935 9-2-0 Williamson
1958 11-0-0 Associated Press/United Press
2003 13-1-1 BCS
2007 12-2-0 BCS
Why does LSU not claim all of these like Alabama and Ole Miss?

Because claiming titles from 1935 and 1908 add nothing to your programs legacy, they're worthless

just about any title claimed before 1950 is meaningless

I noticed that during the national championship game this year the anouncers made it known that Alabama does not have as many championships as they claimed.

If you base NC's on finishing number one in at least one poll, and some fan bases do, then LSU has 8 NC's in football.

Off the top of my head I believe 36 and 59 were yrars LSU finished number 1 in at least one poll. There was another year as well.

Would love to see a 1908 championship flag hanging.

As mentioned by distinguished gentlemen above, we ARE NOT the Gumptards and Ole Piss!! The only thing we have in common with them is the conference we play in....period. Everyone else in the country gets a good laugh at their expense (especially the Gumptards) because they claim more than they should.

In my book, we have 3...58, 03 and 07.



Good topic though.

According to who? That is always the question. According to who? It don't matter about the past. We need Les Miles gone after he fails to win the WEST this year. That is all...
