Ole Miss had a great six-year run from 1958-63. They were actually pretty good from '58-'70.

Why would you pick 2001-2010 as LSU's 10 year period? Why not 2002-2011, which would include another SEC championship?

Aside from that, dumb thread is dumb.

Then you would drop the 2001 SEC title. So, either way, LSU has 2 SEC Titles. That is why I used 2001 - 2010 and 2003 - 2012.

Anything else? Quick, find how I was trying to make LSU look bad!

Auburn had a good run from 2004 to 2013
90+ wins
3 conference championships
2 perfect seasons in modern era
1 legit NC and barely missed a second

Good point, I will add that one too. Forgot that 2013 snuck in there with 2004 and 2010.

Good point George...
I guess 2002-2011 COULD have been the best 10-year period, if we had only ended the 2011 season the way we should have....

Once 2006 and 2007 roll off

2008-2017 is going to be the best 10 year stretch a college program ever had.

You know this can't be right. Tennessee with an 80% winning percentage over 10 years? Impossible, according to this website. Why, we're one of the sorriest, most bankrupt programs in the country. Better re-calculate!

You left off the Horns. 119-24 record (.83) from 1999-2009. Played in the 2 national championships, won one. Played in 2 BCS bowls (fiesta and rose), won both.
I know USC had like a .001 percent better record over that time but we beat them head to head in the greatest game of all time so tie goes to victor.
Seems like a long time ago.
At least the aggy program has kept us entertained of late. Glad to see they continue to represent themselves as they truly are in other conferences. We appreciate you taking them.

Will add, good point. Oklahoma over that same period as well.

it is even more incredible when you look at the overlaps and especially overlaps involving teams that are in the same conference or that play every year. Imagine Florida or Florida State if they were in different decades or didn't have to face each other. They cost each other at least 4 titles in the 90's. And then you throw in Nebraska in the 90's and all three played each other costing each other more titles. And, Florida had to also contend with Tennessee, which made the list, half that decade as well.

It shows you how incredible Bobby Bowden and Steve Spurrier were in the 90's, and only one of those guys played an SEC schedule while the other guy openly admitted running from the SEC.

Meanwhile, how many times did Alabama, OK, and SC play each other in the 70's??

FSU and Florida at the same time, man. Crazy.


The amount of blue chip talent that comes out of Florida and Georgia alone every year can sustain 5-6 major programs.

Instead of the "Goal Line Stand," Oklahoma vs Alabama following the 1978 season would have been off the charts.

quite amazing they tied to end the 1970 season. In 1971 they both completely transformed into behemoths for about 10 yrs.Oddly enough 1976 was the only season either one "stumbled."
