2011 SEC West:
3 of top 5 in final AP poll, including 2 teams in the BCS Championship
LSU 13-1
Bama 12-1
Ark 11-2
With tOSU forfeiting their tainted win in the Sugar Bowl, this means HALF the division lost ZERO games besides each other. (Even if you could Ohio State's win over Arkansas, it's still amazing).
But the bottom half of the division wasn't terrible, either, with the exception of Ole Miss. Take away the games against these top 3 opponents, and auburn was 8-2, and MS State 7-3.
I seriously doubt we will ever see a more dominant year from one division of one conference. Just incredible.

Arky was not as good as their record indicated.

Arkansas played K-State that season.

When did they forfeit that game. The NCAA gave them permission to use the five ineligible players in the bowl game.

2010 was better.

I opened this expecting something fascinating, or at least interesting.
Holy shite, was I disappointed.
