Yeah I forgot they had that stretch in 2000 also. That team was really fricking good. Not a ton of NFL stars, Roy Williams is the only one that comes to mind off the top of my head, but a bunch of really really good college players like Rocky Calmus, JT Thatcher, Heupel, Quentin Griffin.

Bama played the Sugar Bowl with out a left tackle. Hard to win playing 10 against 11.

I think 2003 and 2004 really messed with him for awhile. Their regular season in 2003 was just a ridiculous offensive display and they also had the #1 ranked defense in the country in YPG. Then they got completely shut down offensively in 2 straight games by Kansas St and LSU. 2004 they coast through the regular season and get completely dismantled by USC in the BCSCG. That had to have been in Stoops head. Seems like he may be turning a corner now, though. That win over Alabama had to have really been a confidence booster, which is pretty evident in him going right back to talking shite about the SEC.
