Sorry, 4 not five.

Yet all four… Alabama, Georgia, LSU, and Auburn…

*Have won 2 more SEC Titles
*Have won at least one National Title
*Have all played for at least two National Titles

… all since the Gators last won an SEC Title.

When you combine that drought with their drought leading up to the late 1980s/early 1990s, it is quite amazing how much success they jam packed into that short period. Also leaves on scratching their head as to why the lack of success outside that small window.

It doesn’t leave me doing so. Florida experienced a population boom where it tripled in population from 1969-1990. It’s not even doubled since then. This led to more available talent. Since Meyer left they’ve made horrible hires. It’s silly to call a school with 3 NC, under 2 coaches, in the last 30 years a one hit wonder. Florida before the widespread use of central A/C isn’t the Florida of today. People can live there in relative comfort today.
