It's not the same and you know it.


Again, your three biggest rivals have all had incredibly terrible head coaches for the last 4+ years. That is an indisputable fact. Add to the fact UF's coach had a mental breakdown and UGA wasn't on the schedule and you still have only 2 SEC titles in six years.

That still doesn't change the fact that 9 of the 12 SEC schools were mostly sub-par in football during the 1990s. Even then, the winner of the Florida-Tennessee game was generally the best team in the conference.

If you're referring to tennessee, auburn, and lsu...2 of those schools have won national championships with their terrible coaches.

I was addressing the strength of the league as a whole in each era, not anything particular to Alabama.

The Spurrier of the 1990s may have done just as well in today's league, but if you think the conference was stronger back then please share what you're smoking.
