Winning the SEC East back to back is easy, the West, not so much

Florida won the East 5 consecutive years during the Spurrier heyday. (92/93/94/95/96).
Tennessee then won it back to back (97/98)
Florid then again won it back to back (99/00).
UGA won it twice in a row (02/03).
Florida had another two year run (08/09).
UGA did it once again (11/12).
Missouri has just done it (13/14).
There has only been one true repeat West winner
Alabama (08/09)
Alabama won it three straight (92,93,94) however the 93 "win" was actually a 2nd place finish behind probation Auburn, thus you can discount this streak.

In a 6 team division only 3 teams have done this
Tennessee - dumpster fire since the fat man left
Florida - dumpster fire since UM left
Georgia - snatching defeat from victory since the 1980's

Missouri has just done it (13/14)
Just shows you how far at least 2 of the others have fallen.

Why don't you dazzle us by adding the years those back to back East Winners beat the West winner. Its funny how often people forget that the East had its dominant period also. Everything is cyclical.

Here is the underlying thing that all the posts like this mask though:
Any Rant poster who says they ever thought Mizzou would win back to back division titles of any kind, ever, when they joined the SEC is completely bullshitting. Completely.
The fact the discourse has shifted to listing and comparing Mizzou accomplishements to past accomplishments of UF, UGA and UT suits me just fine.
