The wierd thing is that Bama isn't really dominating the SEC; they are just winning (or others are losing) when it truly matters. Last year they lost in the regular season but were able to get back in due to other conferences sucking. This year they had three games that could have gone either way; losing the only one they could to still make the MNC. if LSU or UGA had won instead of aTm, Bama would not be here today.

But a lot of teams are in that position each year. Saban and Bama deserve credit and deserve to be called a dynasty for the results on the field and the hardware in their possession: 1 Heisman winner, 2 SEC championships, 3 MNC, 4 BCS game wins, 5 ten win seasons

And they got lucky with scheduling. Had A&M not played Florida when the coaches didn't know what Johnny could do... or if he had a warm up game? Does anyone think Florida stands a chance against Johnny Football if it wasn't that perfect storm? No. That being said, Alabama beat all the teams i was better than, and lost to the only team it wasn't as good as. A&M can't say the same. Consolation prize is the SEC streak continues.
