Well, every great SEC program has these kind of stretches. Nothing really surprising.

Examples:

LSU in the 90's had 5 straight losing seasons. Hallman was terrible.

Bama sucked most of the shula years losing every game shula coached against LSU, AU, and I believe UT.

Tenn has sucked for a while.

UGA was 3-15 against AU, UF, UT under Goff and barely had a winning record overall.

AU has been the most consistent and has not really had a down period as bad as the rest of the Big 6 since the 1970's, but we were pretty terrible under Barfield.

UF is sorta like AU at this point. They will be back soon enough. Meyer left the program in bad shape talent wise and this is Muschamp's first HC position. He either figures it out next year or UF will get someone who will and turnarounds can happen fast either way.

Gators won't be down for too long. Too much talent in-state to stay where they are imo. A really good QB and they're back...
