They played less games back then.


They played 11 with a possible bowl as 12. We play 12 with the possibility of 14. In 2001 and 2004 though, we only played 11 regular season. Over 9 years that doesn't make much difference. Over 25 years it'll definitely work to Richt's favor, but after only 9 years it really doesn't.

Also he did this in a time when bama and the drunk were dominating the SEC.


Right, so you're saying Dooley basically had 1 all star coach to worry about. Richt has saban and meyer in the league, had fulmer who won a title, and miles has one as well. The league is 10 times harder now than it was then. You're basically saying that what Richt is doing is more impressive.

I think they played 10 with the possibilty of a bowl game for 11 for most of Dooley's career.

But either way I don't think you can judge the two on terms of avg wins. With Dooley being there for 25 years of course his avg wins are going to be lower with more chances of a bad season. When Richt has been there for 25 years then you can look at avg wins.

All those coaches mentioned possess a certain piece of hardware Saint Richt does not.
