re: SEC fans that can still brag about last National Championship...

---

The gap between Bryant's last title at Bama (1979) and Stallings (1992) was 13 years.

The gap between Stallings (1992) and Saban's first (2009) was 17 years.

Just to be pedantic: The gap between Bryant and Stallings is 12 years since BAMA won the championship in 79 and 92 so neither of those years would count. 1980 to 1991, inclusive, is 12 years.

Same with the gap between Stallings and Saban. It was 16 years.
