re: When did SEC dominance originate?

You have a point, but let's not talk about that.

I would say the SEC has had a few periods of dominance, but I'm assuming this thread is mostly referring to the most recent one.

It probably started in the early 2000s. LSU got Nick Saban and won a title in '03. Auburn had Tuberville and went undefeated in '04. Meyer came along not far after and started the streak in '06. UGA was pretty solid under Richt and UT was usually pretty good under Fulmer. Then it really strengthened when Les came to LSU and Saban eventually took the 'Bama job.

The last few years there have been some power shifts as UT/UF went downhill and Arky/USCe/MSU went uphill.
