Well my friend, Saban was a legend and will always be a legend. But when it comes to Kirby and the Dawgs, in the words of the famous pop group the 'Carpenters'... 'We've Only Just Begun'

You do realize Kirby is on pace to break most all of those right?

Every coach still coaching is on pace to break those records; they just have to do it.

Some of this are goofy.

Stick to 5/10/15. These arbitrary “7” “9” “13” just show cherry picking

You left off some.

Highest payroll ever for a college team.

Most free cars given away to players.

Most child support payments made to player baby mamas.

Any of the win totals and consecutive win totals in a season are likely to be broken with the teams playing more and more games.


The others will be tough.

Regarding the ten plus wins, if Vandy hadn't quit due to Covid in 2020, Georgia would be at 7 consecutive ten wins seasons right now and likely 7 if Covid never happens for the 11 win seasons.

Anyone hating on saban is just jelly....tons of respect for what he was able to accomplish every stop of his career...we got to see a legend in real time. As far as cheating goes, everyone is doing it, and if you can't win then you suck at cheating also.

For the most part I agree. These are the possible exceptions:

quote:

Most wins in a 15 season span - 187 (2009 - 2023)

Most wins in a 10 season span - 128 (2012 - 2021)


With the playoff adding games, this one is not certain.

Averaging 10 regular season wins and 2 playoff wins a year would put a coach right there without winning any national titles. They'd be 12-3 each year without even making the title game. And that's without making the SECCG.

A couple of title seasons mixed in those 10-15 years and they'd be equalling Saban.

quote:

Longest SEC Championship game winning streak - 9 (lost in 2008 before winning in 2009, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018, 2020, 2021, and 2023)


Not really sure this works. If you didn't make the SECCG, can you really say you have a streak including that season?

quote:

Most consecutive Top 2 finishes - 4 (2015 - 2018)


Frank Leahy at ND was 1st in 1946, 1st in 1947, 2nd in 1948 and 1st in 1949. Leahy didn't coach from 1944-1945 but in 1943 he also had ND 1st. Not sure if that counts or not as a 5th.

quote:

Most consecutive 10+ win seasons - 16 (2008 - 2023)


We've had coaches with numbers close. Bowden had 14 in seasons with less games than Saban had. Kirby would have been well on his way except UGA only had 10 games played in the covid year (UGA was 8-2). It will last for a while, but I don't think it's untouchable.
