Here's the overall record of the SEC teams AU beat from 1976-79:
1976
Tennessee 6-5
Ole Miss 5-6
1977
Tennessee 4-7
Ole Miss 5-6
Florida 6-4-1
UGa 5-6
1978
Tennessee 5-5-1
Vandy 2-9
Miss State 6-5
1979
Vandy 1-10
Florida 0-10-1
Miss State 3-8
UGa 6-5
In other words, Barfield was incapable of beating any SEC team that finished with more than 6 wins overall. The closest he came was in 1978, when AU tied UGa, who finished the year 9-2-1.
The TAMU team AU beat last year was better than any SEC team AU ever defeated in the Barfield era.
Let THAT sink in.

With exception of the team in turdtown, the SEC was pretty dreadful in the 70's. AU 72, UGA 76, UT 70, LSU had a couple 9-winners in the early going, but that's about it.
