Great, so now Tennessee is claiming national championships when they didn't even win the conference?

Alabama claims the 1941 championship despite having two losses and finishing third in the SEC.

They really ought to revisit that one. They've won plenty of legitimate ones recently. The reputational harm of claiming the 1941 far outweighs the benefit of adding another number to the championship tally.
