Bret Bielema 86-44
Kevin Sumlin 71-33
Hugh Freeze 64-25 (includes NAIA wins at Lambuth)

Will Muschamp 28-21

Saban and Miles are approaching key wins milestones. Both are future College Football Hall of Fame inductees.
The West is far more experienced than the East. It seems to indicate the power will still fall to the West for now.

If undefeated at the time, Saban will be going for win 200 against LSU.
Miles will be breaking the 150 mark against South Alabama.

In 3 seasons Butch will have surpassed Saban in total losses. Amazing really

All-Time Win Leaders
1. Paterno - 409
2. Bowden - 357
3. Bryant - 323
4. Warner - 311
5. Stagg - 282
6. Edwards - 257
7. Osborne - 255
8. Holtz - 249
9. Beamer - 238, M. Brown - 238
11. Schembechler - 234
12. Fry - 230
13. Spurrier - 228
14. Hayes - 205
15. Nehlan - 202
16. Dooley - 201
17. McGugin - 197
18. Saban - 196
19. Snyder - 193
20. Cooper - 192
So, say Saban coaches 5 more years and averages 10.5 wins a year. 53 more wins puts him at about 250, 2nd all time in the SEC behind Bryant.

it's crazy to see how many wins Paterno and Bowden were able to get while mostly playing fewer games per season

Saban has more wins than the entire SEC east combined. But to be fair he has 20 years as a college head coach. The SEC east has 23 years combined.

Yes, he does have 196 "on the field". But unfortunately we had to vacate those five wins in 2007. Which were Mike Shula's fault.

His national title and winning percentage are already enough, according to the requirements.

The consistency is amazing.
Bowden only lost 3+ games 3 times from 1977 to 2004. He won 8+ games 23 times over that span. He won 10 or more games 15 times from 1987 to 2003.
Incredible.

yeah, maybe I spoke prematurely. I guess I assumed the requirements would be higher for a coach.

Neyland would have been high on that list if not for WWII. Only got to coach 216 games, winning 173 of them. 112 of his wins were shutouts.

Good works also get a coach in, if he doesn't meet one of winning percentage or national title. Gene Stallings made it in because of that.

yeah, Spurrier had some really nice things to say about Neyland last weekend. He's definitely one of the all-time greats, yet I feel like most casual fans aren't even aware of that.

Winning 1 national title accompanied with >1 SEC Title and a really high win % is something not a lot of folks have.
Coaches in Modern Era with >1 National Title
Bear Bryant - 6
Woody Hayes - 5
Nick Saban - 5
Urban Meyer - 3
Tom Osborne - 3
Barry Switzer - 3
Joe Paterno - 2
Bobby Bowden - 2
I might be missing 1, but that isn't a real long list. A lot of great coaches with only 1 national title.

Bryant's head coaching career was delayed as well. He was actually on the way to Fayetteville to accept the Arkansas job in December 1941, when Pearl Harbor occurred. He took a train back to Nashville (he was a Vanderbilt assistant as the time), to join the Navy. He would eventually become a head coach in 1945 at Maryland, after his Navy service concluded.

If Phil Fulmer and Lloyd Carr are CFBHOFers, Miles is too.
