re: Bama's "dynasty" was nearly a 10-3 team

The Florida team.came out of nowhere. Prior to the season it was widely expected and rightfully so that LSU had an easier schedule than Bama because of one game only and that was Michigan; however, as the season progressed everyone saw Michigan for what they we're average at best and no one saw Flojrida coming. They were not particularly respected until they beat LSU and that was before ZM had made any progression or your OL had gelled. Had LAU played FLa later I think the results would have been different especially if they played like ZM did against Bama.
