All-time wins is certainly an important category. But I will say post-season success is not only more important, but a lot more so.


Any rational thinking person believes this. And bama fans would think this too if the outcome gave them something they could be proud of.... but it doesn't, so they resort to trying to come up with all these other measurable that no one else would ever put any stock into.

It's ridiculous really.

Yea, who pays attention to goofy stats like SEC Championships, NCAAT Appearances, Sweet 16 Appearances, etc?

I'm still waiting on how Tennessee, with their less than Alabama postseason success, ranks 6th in front of Alabama at 7 in your "NCAAT is all that matters" poll.

NCAAT Appearances
Alabama - 20
Tennessee - 20

Sweet Sixteen Appearances
Alabama - 8
Tennessee - 7

Elite Eight Appearances
Alabama - 1
Tennessee - 1

There's nothing more ridiculous in this thread than you pretending that all time wins magically don't matter.

Even more ridiculous that you didn't even start trying to argue that until you were backed into a corner and faced with the fact that your first couple of long arse posts in this thread were completely pointless, as you were arguing about SEC wins because you had no idea Bama ranked so highly in all time wins.

Sad.
