Ignoring Bamas made up titles that they claim Bama has 6 legitimate titles, 61, 73, 92, 09,11, and 12. Unless you remove 2011 with the Bama/LSU mess. They have 5. UF currently sits at 3. I would think it takes UF 15 years to surpass Bama as the SECs pinnacle program. Followed closely by LSU, who unlike Bama seems to get the short end of the stick when it comes to teams following rules or winning their conference.

Tennessee would do it before Florida would. Despite Florida's success in the 90s and a portion of the 2000s, they have a long way to go.

To accomplish this UF would have to win 4 more nattys and 8 more SEC championships while raising the overall program win number up to 775-825(we are currently at 680). Meanwhile Bama would have to be completely shitting the bed while we were on this run.

Consensus National Champions (AP, B(QPRS), BR, DeS, DuS, FN, FWAA, HAF, MGR, NCF, NFF, NYT, PS, R(FACT), SN, SR, UPI)
Sugar Bowl Champions
SEC Champions
Sugar Bowl, W 24-9 vs. Arkansas

1979 was Alabama's seventh perfect season in college history after 1925, 1930, 1934, 1945, 1961, and 1966 (discounting the 1897 “season” in which Bama played and won only one game). The Bama defense recorded five shutouts (including a 40-0 win over Florida in Gainsville) and allowed only two teams to score in double digits.

The only close game was a 3-0 win over LSU in Tiger Stadium.


The offense scored thirty points or more seven times. They remain the last Division I college football team to allow fewer than 100 overall points during the season.

You should be thankful to live in the Motherland with all that Orange around you.

It ain't easy having more NCs, conference titles, division titles, consensus all americans, all time winning percentage or post season bowl record then you. Not to mention being apart of the elite 800 club.

But I mean shite, somebodies gotta do it

Alabama has 9 AP titles, 10 wire press titles overall. I do find it amusing that you are that desperate to find some way of reducing them to find the task less daunting. This to Florida's 3.

We also have 23 SEC titles to Florida's 8.

147 more wins as well.

Seriously? We'd have to stop playing football for it to likely happen in your lifetime.

UF would have to pass a couple of other SEC programs in wins before they even got to think about Alabama's record.
