That run included 2 SEC Championships, 2 wins in 3 major bowl appearances, 7 top 10 finishes and won 74% of his games. He never won a national title.

By way of comparison, in his final 15 seasons at Alabama, Paul W. Bryant won 9 SEC Championships, won 5 of 10 major bowl appearances, had 11 top 10 finishes including 3 national titles (2 split, 1 consensus) and won 81.4% of his games.

His record against AU over those 15 seasons was 11-4.

So long Saint Mark. You will not be missed on the Plains.

So what I'm learning here is that the Bear was a better coach than Richt. Interesting.

2007 really messed him up. It's amazing how that South Carolina game still haunts him so many years later.

Just to keep in mind:
Joe Paterno- 17 years to win NC at Penn State
Bobby Bowden- 18 years to win NC at Florida State
Tom Osborne- 22 years to win NC at Nebraska

Before their NC, their records looked incredibly similar to Richt's. Eventually he would've pulled it together. Never should've been fired
