The thing is Bama's run isn't even close to being done...we should easily jump Nebraska and Miami....and if total titles won were during the period was the overriding factor, Bama should be ahead of Oklahoma too.....

Sadly, UGA's 02-05 run is probably one of the better 4 year runs without a MNC. Not the best, but 2 SEC titles and 46-9 overall is solid.

There are some I don't agree with. I mean if you are going to have Tressel's Ohio State teams on there or Oklahoma in the 2000s, how are you possibly leaving off Florida in the 90's?
UF went 122-27-1, won 6 (or 7) SEC championships and a NC. At the very least the 93-96 stretch should be included. 45-6-1, 4 SEC titles, one NC and one title game appearance and two other major bowl games.

LSU
2009-2012: 43-9 (Miles) 85%
2005-2012: 85-20 (Miles) 80% (8 seasons)
2000-2012: 133-37 80%
Average of 11 wins per year, a winning season and bowl berth every year since 2000, winning 8 bowls games, 2 BCSNCGs in 3 appearances, and 4 SEC Titles in 5 SECCG appearances.
Not a "dynasty", but definitely one of the top 3 or 4 programs since 2000, and the ONLY one to have a winning season and go to a bowl game all 13 times.

Did Auburn not have a awesome run in the 2000's?
No. They had 2004, which was a great year but without a natty. 03 was average IIRC. 05 was good, 02 was good, 01 was good, 06 was pretty good. But I mean from 00-09 they only even won their DIVISION once. So no, no dynasty.

Very loose definition of the word "dynasty" in some cases.

Very interesting list because it doesn't seem they put a time "limit" on the dynasties. Like some of them are 4 years long and one for OSU is 17 years long??
As was pointed out for the UF teams of the 90s, why were they not included whend the OSU team from the 2000s were (although OSU was in a BCS bowl 8 of 9 years I'm pretty sure).
How is OSU from 54-70 not higher if that was a "dynasty" for 17 years?
Edit: And OSU "won" 5 national titles from 54-70 which beats most of these other dynasty periods for the most important stat....

38-41 UT deserves to be on there.
2 NC's, 4 conference titles.
15 game shutout streak (17 games regular season shutout streak)
32 game regular season undefeated streak.
From '38-'40, 75 points allowed (2.27 ppg). '38-'41, 148 (3.4 ppg).

How does Tennessee not make that list with '95 - '98
UF overshadowed them during this time frame and didn't make the list either.

Firstthing that crossed my mind when I read the list was where are Spurrier's Florida teams? To the UT poster who asked where UT 95-98 was, I can only assume if they didn't put those 90's UF teams they couldn't put in those Peyton UT teams that lost to UF

12. Alabama Crimson Tide (1971-79) : 97-11
this should be higher

I agree. Only one team failed to win a championship of any kind. That same team was the only that failed to win 10 games (they won 9). I don't see how you can argue Miami 2000-03 over Alabama 1971-79. Yes, Miami was very good, but it lasted only 4 years until they slipped to irrelevance. You could even make the case that Alabama's 1970s run was better than USC's 2000s run- their numbers were almost exactly the same.
Alabama 1971-79, by the numbers
National Championships (AP/UPI): 1973, 1978, 1979
SEC Championships: 1971, 1972, 1973, 1974, 1975, 1977, 1978, 1979
10 Win Seasons: 1971, 1972, 1973, 1974, 1975, 1977, 1978, 1978
