That's how schedules were done back then. Some years team had more games than other teams. In 1976, the extra game Bama played actually cost them the SEC title to UGA. Bama was 5-2 and UGA was 5-1. This was only the 2nd year in the entire 1970's that Bama didn't win the SEC crown.


In 1969, Auburn actually was the one with 7 SEC games and Bama only had 6. So stop with the usual butthurt conspiracy laden Auburn talk

I love it when someone pops in with an interesting stat like this out of no where and bursts someone's bubble. It just makes me giggle.

No one is saying Alabama was the only one who did it. In fact, we are saying the opposite. And in the case of 1969, that 1 extra SEC game hurt them and gave them an extra loss, whereas if they had not had that they would've been co-champs.
