the following achievements are important when establishing dominance?


Over an in-state rival in regards to the status of each program? Absolutely.

When Nick Saban took over, Bama had lost to Auburn 5 consecutive years and was an afterthought. Many proclaimed Bama to be the new "little brother" in the state and laughed when we hired Saban. He flipped the script. Auburn is nothing more than an occasional thorn in Bama's side these days and has gone through 3 coaches over that span (and many in and around the program want to make it 4). Auburn has truly never been more irrelevant on a national scale in my lifetime.

Call that whatever you want. It's pure, unadulterated, domination.

Imagine if Auburn got to play Tennessee every year instead of UGA

Sweet. I agree with you completely.

I was told repeatedly that those were bullshite metrics when comparing teams for best season ever.
