LSU wasn't that big of a deal back then VD also beat em in 78 and 79 and all those 80's SECC teams would have beat them.

Bama woulda been a good match up to those 80 and 81 teams.82 team woulda killed them.

VD also got knocked out by AU in 77,79,71 and 83.

I get your point though.VD had far easier path than CMR does today.

at least a few of Dooley's SEC titles were shared titles...and in 1976 the only teams we could beat were conference teams....

No matter how you slice it we have never been an elite program. 1980-83 is as close as we ever came record wise but elite programs are not one man shows.....
