After Auburn ’s latest national championship haul, college football fans are having a field day.
Auburn football will now recognize seven national championships in addition to its 1957 and 2010 titles. Here's a look at why.

On Tuesday morning, On3’s Justin Hokanson reported that “Auburn football, finally, will claim nine deserving and legitimate college football national championships.” Before this move, Auburn had recognized five national titles: 1913, 1957, 1983, 1993, and 2010. Now, it will recognize 1910, 1914, 1958 and 2004.
Auburn played its own Santa Claus on Tuesday morning, dropping down the chimney with seven new national championships. Print the T-shirts for 1910, 1913, 1914, 1958, 1983, 1993 and 2004. You’re now No. 1! It’s beautifully absurd and why college football is unlike any sport out there.
