No one knew it would be this good


Not in my wildest dreams. People forget, Saban was a master recruiter, but he I anticipated having elite NFL players, average 9-3 or 10-2, stop losing to Auburn and LSU every year and win an SEC title at some point.

The idea that we would average 12 wins a year, win half the national titles over his tenure and be what we are was.....not even in my wildest dreams.

I used to be so obsessed with 1992. Had every game on VHS, all the programs, ticket stubs, etc. Still have them but they're packed away in a closet instead of on my wall.

Just didn't think we would win another one and I barely remembered it. I was clinging to it


We get Saban. Alright we're gonna be good now. Lose to ULM.... Ehh maybe it's gonna take a while. 08 kicks off, Clemson and Georgia, we're gonna be DAMN good. fricking awesome.

09 was a total dream season, Rocky Block and Ingram's Wildcat 4th against SCar and Auburn's moral victory and making Tebow cry. This was a team of destiny.

You recognize that NC's take some luck, you can't just be a great team, the breaks have to go your way in crucial moments. It's not realistic to expect this every year.

2010, lose 3 games and Auburn wins the NC. Ok, so we're gonna have rebuilding years but maybe we can put it together one more time over the next 10 and get another Natty

Instead, we embark on the greatest dynasty of all time

What a ride.
