That is 68 years of the past 97 with a coach who won more than 80% of games. They have the highest win % and the most games won, 818. OU is 2nd with 771, 2nd in SEC UTe 729, UGA 721, LSU 693, UF 660, AU 641.
Even in their 2 down periods for a total of 23 years they won 2 SEC titles.
They have 5 coaches who coached 6 years or more and won more than 80% of their games at Alabama. No other SEC program has even one coach at 80% except UF who has 2, Spurrier and Meyer and UT who has one, Neyland. Most programs are fortunate to have one or 2 who have a win % at 70% or more after 6 or more years.
