Your SEC stat that's the most difficult to believe but actually true

I've got Auburn only finishing with double-digit win totals in back-to-back seasons one time in the history of the program...
1988. Auburn 10–2
1989. Auburn 10–2
...Since conference expansion winning 10 games really hasn't been all that damn difficult, and it seems like a program with the resources of Auburn at some point would've slipped, fallen and landed into back to back 10 win seasons at least once.
But then again that's why Auburn is the most schizophrenic program in college football.

Damn, you got a hard on for Auburn today.
I’ll allow it, proceed.

They were put on probation for those years:
"The NCAA found Auburn committed six major violations. Three involved giving cash payments to Ramsey. A fourth cited Dye's program for a lack of proper institutional control. The other two -- both new to the case and provided to the NCAA by Auburn itself -- cited the school for allowing athletes to play without meeting all eligibility requirements and exceeding the number of permissible grants-in-aid during 1988-89 and 1990-91."

One back in the history of the SEC started out with 3 consecutive 1,000 yard rushing seasons.
It isn't Bo, Darren, Hershel, or Derrek. It isn't Kevin, Cadillac, Shaun, or Emmitt.
Its Alex Collins.

3 undefeated seasons since then too. Which is rare in the SEC.

MSU is, and always will be, the CFP’s first #1 team.

Ole Miss never going to Atlanta and State did.
As a State fan this is just hilarious to me. But hey they were co-champs of the west that one time.

That every single recruit since the 2006 recruiting class (minus Andre Smith) who stayed just 3 years at Bama has left with at least one NC ring.
Halfway through the second term of George W Bush.

I have to admit, it’s pretty nice not having Awwbarn and gata fans peacocking all over the place
Just need to add TxAss2Mouth to that list and it’ll be pretty tolerable.
