2008: 12-2
2009: 14-0
2010: 10-3
2011: 12-1
2012: 13-1
2013: 11-2
2014: 12-2
2015: 9-1
What's more impressive is that over the last four seasons, they have finished the regular season with 11 wins. They have a chance to win 11 games in the regular season for a fifth consecutive season should they win these last two games:
2011: 11-1
2012: 11-1
2013: 11-1
2014: 11-1
2015: 9-1
Who says Nick Saban is overrated?

Yeah. But Arkansas beat LSU so...

But, but, but they should never lose a game with all the talent brought in.

Bama always having a cupcake game before Iron Bowl.. Crazy they got a OOC this late in the season with a FCS team!!

Truly a remarkable run we are witnessing. We are very lucky as fans to be a part of it.

I'll say it.
There isn't a team in football with more wins since 2008.
So obviously Nick Saban is overrated.
With all the hype, I can't believe he's lost 12 games during that time.
That's 12 games too many.

Nick Saban is overrated.

Sorry you scheduled your cupcakes early so you can make your losses that much more heartbreaking toward the end

Well, we helped.

Last year against Bama, Western Carolina was more interested in taking cheap shots than in trying to win the game. Late OOC games against inferior competition is a no win situation.

An SEC record btw.
Bryant had 5 in a row in the 70's (when 10 win seasons were much, much harder)
Spurrier had 6 in a row in the 90's (harder than now, but easier than the 70's).

This statement alone shows you have no clue how schedules are made and makes you look dumb.
Here's a brief explanation so you won't make an equally misinformed statement in the future.
The season begins with a blank slate - the SEC office fills this slate with SEC vs. SEC games - the 4 of the 5 open weeks remaining are then filled in by the schools.
You can fill in the open weeks with a FBS team (difficult) or an FCS team (less difficult ) or leave it open. You typically see OOC FBS vs. FBS games in the first three weeks of the season due to conferences back loading their schedules for traditional rivalries.
The difficulty rating is due to the flexibility FCS schools have due to their desire to make the season profitable.
Now, you have a basic idea of how schedules are made and you won't look like a newbie Ranter or an LSU fan the next time you make a comment on schedules.
