You seem incapable of an intelligent discussion. I'm guessing you never actually attended the University of Alabama.
Nonetheless, over the past four years Georgia has won two national titles, Alabama has none. Georgia is the reigning SEC champion. Georgia will undoubtedly be ranked higher than Alabama going into next season.
Alabama has a 9-4 record under its current leadership with a ReliaQuest Bowl loss to its credit.
If you want to simply look at head-to-head results, we would have to put Vanderbilt football ahead of Alabama on the list. Foolish, right?

Find programs who have more national titles than what I listed then.
Who would you replace them with and why?
Alabama football has all the hardware to be king of football for quite a while.
Georgia football has come on the past few years and just won the league and made the playoffs.
Florida basketball just won its third national title since 2006.
Kentucky basketball is, unfortunately, SEC basketball standard.
Vanderbilt baseball has played for four national titles and won two in the past 9 years.
LSU baseball…you know your own recent history.
Again, what programs have performed better recently?
Past few years is past 3-4 years. Kentucky winning a title 20 years ago is irrelevant to this discussion. Alabama football winning titles under Saban in the 2010-2017 era is irrelevant to this analysis as well. You seem to be making a list (while trolling of course) of historical best programs, not current best.

No one with a brain thinks Alabama is currently the gold standard for football. Georgia has clearly taken that mantle.
Alabama is 9-1 against Georgia in their last 10 matchups, including last season.
Georgia hasn't taken shite from Alabama.

I know what you're trying to do you dumb bastard, you're ate up with hate for Bama because we own you in everything.
I was just pointing out facts old man.
And you don't like em.

Like I said, you seem incapable of intelligent discussion. I notice you avoided my statement about ever actually attending the University of Alabama. Just a dumb redneck who bought a shirt at Wal-Mart. Go Tide!

No, I’m using the trajectory of all men’s major programs in the league.
Texas A&M played for a title in baseball last year…how would you have “analyzed” their program at this time a year ago? Now fast forward…they didn’t even make the post season a year later.
The most logical and reasonable response to your OP is to list the most dominant programs currently, going back over 10-15 years…saying 3-4 years is fools gold when attempting to find trajectories of programs.

2002 grad and you're not worth my time. I'm just glad my alma mater takes up so much space in your loser head.

Yes, because it is true and pathetic.

It actually seems the opposite. You are trying your best to exclude Alabama from your discussion. Trolling, unintelligent, whatever you want to call it.
We are in the midst of the playoff era in college football…name a more successful program in this modern era?

You can start your own thread and frame the era you would like to discuss. Mine was framed in the OP to be past few years, current and immediate future.
In addition, the Alabama program that had all the great success in the playoff era of college football is not the same program in place at Alabama now. Wouldn't you agree?

And I gave you a list, which is supported by multiple national title winning programs over the recent past.

No I wouldn’t. It is still Alabama football and they’re a year removed from being in the playoff. Over the entire history of SEC athletics there are two constants in men’s major sports…Alabama Football and Kentucky Basketball. If we wanted to include the major to minor sports, we would include Arkansas Track and LSU baseball (since 1990).
No matter what timeframe you’d prefer to use, those first two major sport programs will always be on any list of top programs…the proof is in the pudding.

Well this is a fricking killshot.

Again, you don't seem to want to grasp the foundation of the thread. This has nothing to do with the entire history of SEC athletics, it's the past few years, current and immediate future.

Pathetic for sure. Just not true.

What does one season change when there is 100+ years of evidence to confirm?
You’re literally trying to argue that Alabama football should not be on my list because they didn’t make the playoff one season.
You’re also saying Kentucky basketball shouldn’t be on the list because…well I’m not sure why…only three basketball programs in the entire SEC have national titles, ever…Kentucky’s last being in 2012 and a Runner up in 2014…and two other final four trips…
Again…you’re simply trying to narrow this down to a single year or two, when there’s 100+ years of program history that’s saying you’re dumb.
