Prior to this past season, Bama last lost a NCG game in 1974. #2 ranked at 11-0, lost to ND in the Orange Bowl and would have, at 12-0 with a win over ND, unquestionably finished ahead of 11-0 Oklahoma which was on Bowl Probation. Won SEVEN straight after that in the '78, '79, '92, '09, '11, '12, and '15 seasons.

I don't think the 79 game was a 1 vs 2 matchup. Might be wrong though.

Doesn't matter. Lose it and Bama is not #1. Hell, #3 11-0-1 USC was lobbying for it because they beat #1 tOSU in the Rose Bowl.
Same as '74. Win it and you're #1. Lose it and you're not.

'Bout the same length of time as between Barn NC wins.
