I'd say yes with the constant decline of LSU football

Team A (Since 2010)
35-5
1 SEC Championship
2 National Championship Game Appearances
2 National Championships

Team B (Since 2010)
34-6
1 SEC Championship
1 National Championship Game Appearance
N/A National Championships

If someone asked you to choose between Team A and Team B, I'm quite sure you'd pick Team A. But if I asked you why, wouldn't the answer be "I choose Team A because they've played for and won more national championships than Team B." I can't imagine that any reasonable person would look at Team A and Team B and say "I choose Team A because Team B is clearly in decline."

Not trying to flame but I think most would agree that Florida was in decline under Ron Zook; Florida State was in decline at the end of the Bowden years; and Tennessee was in decline at the end of the Fulmer era. These teams were putting up respectable records by NCCA standards but not by the standards of their schools and it was clear that none of them were championship contenders any longer. LSU is in contention for SEC and National Championships late in the season every year. They haven't closed out seasons like BAMA, but who has?
