When that 3 loss team was possibly your most talented team in one of the most dominate 4 year runs in CFB history it can feel like an abomination

They lost 3 in 2010, to LSU in 2011, and to A&M last year. No idea about only 4 wins but they seemed to avoid the east big boys


They lost to SCAR and Auburn in 2010. Who was the third?

LSU in 2011 and A&M in 2012.

The four wins were against LSU twice, or was it three times? And I am assuming the 2010 win over Arkansas, correct?

Unpossible.

Nobody in the 2013 season has finished the season ranked yet.

Over the course of time I think our standards are pretty high. Obviously 2006 was far below our standard. That being said, our team was actually good before Saban so I can see how we're not on the same page.

Ok then, we're still 6-5. I originally had 11-5, but I saw that the OP just counted SEC teams, so I took out MSU, Michigan, and ND.

I thought it was nice that it included 2011 and 2012. I normally expect 2010 to present (excluding 2011 and 2012) threads.

Honesty, we've won 3 out of 4 national titles. Anyone trying to post negative stats is reaching pretty badly and has come up short against us.

Well you went undefeated and played a decent schedule to get you into the BCSCG. You did neither of those things in 2011 or 2012, which is what that stat is about.

The link that had us at number 2? I just thought you were on my side. Honestly, LSU has 3 national title but LSU has one national title before 2003. We aren't really in the same realm.

LSU is a good program but they're like Georgia... good not great. Bama has been very lucky over the years but you really cant compare the two programs in terms of rings (SEC or natty).

Skewing stats is also a human thing.
