Of the 13 repeat titles, 3 of them are owned by Bernie Bierman and 2 by Bear Bryant. Bierman very rarely gets the credit he deserves.
For anybody wondering about '47 and '48 for TSUN, they had different coaches in those years (Crisler/Oosterbaan), and the poll taken after Rose Bowl following the '47 season wasn't recognized as official by the AP anyway.
The only coaches to win their third title after the 70s are Switzer and Osborne, who both deserve an astersisk. Oklahoma's '74 title came when they were on probation and didn't play in a bowl game; and Osborne's '97 title was a parting gift from the other coaches.
