Why the asterisk? Everybody had the same Covid restrictions.

“It depends a little bit on how you define a dynasty,” McElroy said this week on an episode of “Always College Football with Greg McElroy.” “I always define a dynasty with complete dominance over the competition almost always, and I think that those days have definitely gone by the wayside.”

Greg McElroy declares Alabama dynasty over: ‘Those days have definitely gone by the wayside’

Auburn finished fifth in the SEC West, had a losing record for the third consecutive season, and got blown out in the Music City Bowl.

I agree with Greg. Pro football means parity.

Ohio State played 5 regular season games. It is an asterisk season.

They have 6 of the past 15 national titles. I'd throat punch my mother for half of that.


Little brother gonna little brother, I guess.

Does it change anything regardless of how someone answers?

No one denies that 2009-2017 when they won 5 out of 9 national titles was a dynasty.

Excellent summary per TheTideMustRoll:
quote:

1. Stidham8 starts a thread saying that Alabama's recruiting is lagging and nowhere close to the #1 class this year, and that Bama cannot compete in the new world of NIL.
quote:



2. Several pages go by in which multiple Bama posters say, "This happens every year, just wait and see," while multiple retards (OP, Rhino5, WT21) chime in to predict the end of the Bama dynasty.

3. It gets pointed out that Auburn's class is even worse than Bama's.

4. Somewhere around page 10 noted internet prognosticator and college football insider Irons Puppet arrives to start bloviating about how Auburn doesn't need great recruiting classes to beat Alabama. It is pointed out to him that he is crowing about a losing record to Bama during Saban's tenure, and that Auburn subsequently fired the man responsible for most of the victories the Tigers did manage to eke out. These facts do not appear to faze Mr. Puppets.

5. Somehow the subject of USC 2004 comes up. Irons Puppet makes the claim that the difference between vacated games and forfeited games is that the term "vacated" is used when a school agrees to stop claiming wins, while "forfeit" means the NCAA forced them to do it. Everyone is astounded by just how wrong he is, but he continues to insist he is right. From about page 15 to page 22 or 23 esteemed poster Tuscaloosa literally cuts and pastes the NCAA guidelines explaining what the terms "vacated" and "forfeited" actually mean, but Mr. Puppets sticks to his guns no matter how clearly and completely wrong he may be. Eventually he claims that he is right because the real rules are unwritten and tacitly understood, or some damn thing. He also claims college football is not a sanctioned sport by the NCAA. It's really an astonishing sequence and if you have time you should at least read those pages.

6. Finally Irons stops responding. About this time Alabama begins reeling in top prospect after top prospect, rapidly rising to have the, that's right, #1 class in the nation. There is much laughter at the OP's awesome prediction skills.

7. OP reveals his inner bitchness by editing the thread title and first post, which may be the most extreme example of "too little too late" any of us will ever see.

Seriously, if you have time, the entire thread is comedy gold. You should read it.

OP must work for AL.com. Its the same style. Diminish success at every possible turn while not mentioning that auburn is beyond dumpster fire mode.
