* – Denotes shared title

Notes:[6]

  • Baylor forfeited its claim to a share of the 1915 title due to use of an ineligible player.
  • Arkansas forfeited its claim to the 1933 title due to use of an ineligible player. No champion was named.
  • No champions were named in 1916 and 1918. Baylor and Texas both finished the 1916 season tied for the best record.

[6]

In 1994, Texas A&M would have won the Southwest Conference title with a 6–0–1 record, but they were ruled ineligible for the conference title and postseason play due to NCAA sanctions. As such, the five teams which finished behind A&M with the same conference record of 4–3 were recognized as co-champions.
