The Southeastern Conference is the undisputed king of major college football. The SEC has been especially dominant of late. Teams from the conference have won 14 national championships since the turn of the 21st century. Alabama has accounted for six of those (2009, 2011, 2012, 2015, 2017, 2020). LSU (3), Georgia (2), Florida (2) and Auburn (1) are responsible for the other eight. But has the SEC been the king of the overall college football bowl season?
