Non-Alabama fans: would you have believed it 6 years ago?

Serious question - six years ago, would anyone have believed that Alabama would have done the following:
* Losses to UL Monroe, and Utah (got those out of the way first)
* 3 sec CG appearances
* 2 sec titles
* 2 (maybe 3) BCS titles
* 3 BCS CG appearances
* Since 2008, a record of 60 and 7
Especially after the post-Stallings decade(1997-2006), who really believed Alabama was capable of going on such a run?

No way. I had high expectations with Saban, and he's well exceeded those.
ETA: Non-Alabama fans. oops.

I'd check MYSELF into a mental health facility.
It's pretty obvious from article and specualtion when he was hired, Nick was simply tasked with making Alabama not be an also-ran. He has passed even the craziest Bama fan's expectations from 2007 and is seriously on the hunt for the Bear's 6 title mark.

Why limit it to non-Alabama fans? Anybody, Bama fan or not, that tells you they saw this run coming is a liar.

No, simply because any loss to ULM is unforeseen

Yes, 3 in 6 years is believable.
