Auburn 2010 BCS Champions: Where Does It Rank With The Last 25 National Champs?

The last 25 National Championships have been ones to remember. However, there were some championship teams that were considered better than others.

Not to take away from any of these champions because all of them did win the National Championship at some point, but some just rank lower than others.

Here are the power rankings of the last 25 National Championship teams in college football. 

25. 2007 LSU

The 2007 LSU Tigers were the only team in BCS history to make it to the National Championship game with two losses. Therefore, they are the only team with two losses to win the National Championship.
