What schools comprise the true SEC "blue bloods"?
Alabama
Yet this century there is only one school with more than 2 national championships in football other than Alabama.
LSU has 3 national titles and puts themselves in the blue blood.
My take on the question was what SEC schools that are blue bloods would be the schools that were members before the expansion in the 90's
1933
The original member schools of the Southeastern Conference, which began play in 1933, were Alabama, Auburn (then Alabama Polytechnic Institute), Florida, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, Louisiana State, Mississippi, Mississippi State (then Mississippi A&M), Sewanee, Tennessee, Tulane and Vanderbilt.

LOL. So Nick Saban built your program so that even Les Miles and Orgeron won titles. What happened in those years between the whitebread 1950s and Nick Saban?
A good place to measure is 1970, which was about when all the SEC was integrated. Since then, LSU is 6th in the conference in total wins and 3rd in SEC titles. That's in the conference. That's not blueblood.
