Lol Bama's "Rough patches" would still have it in the Big 6... All other teams worst runs probably have theirs in the bottom 3.

Bama has NOT had "plenty" of down times lol.

You basically have to cherry pick a 10 year period to make it awful (see 1997-2006).

You can't just say the 80s, see above. You can't just say the 90s, see 1991-1996 and 1999. You can't just say the 2000s, see 2008-2010 (plus 2002 and 2005).

Rough.

Perhaps the wisest statement every made by a LSU fan.

Hell, the 1980s did suck. That's the only decade since Bryant arrived that didn't include at least one National Championship and undefeated season (although Saban needs to get off his arse and put a 15-0 together in the next couple of years to cover the undefeated for this decade).

Until proven otherwise, I still think we suck. We just might suck less than LSU.

Fair enough. I hope we suck less than UF
