You know you are on the wrong side of an argument about Bama when the Auburn fans disagree with you.

Well, NYC also doesn't fall into the trappings of the whole "They ain't no dynasty cuz they's mah rival!" mindset.

You know... because he's actually intelligent and shite.

Bama is mid-dynasty, bro. When this run is over, I promise you'll know the answer..

Alabama is part of the SEC dynasty. They are only one of many SEC teams that have made the SEC the preeminent college football conference since 2006 without question.

In 2012, if not for TAM’s loss to Florida, which Alabama conveniently misses most years, they would have finished second in the SEC West.

In 2011, Alabama got a second chance at a crystal ball without winning their SEC divisional crown or conference championship--king sized fluke.

While Alabama has managed to win three BCS Championships in the past four years, they only did it in a dominate fashion in 2009.

In my mind, one truly dominant season does not make for a dynasty.

A team from the SEC would have probably won the last couple of years even if Bama had not. The true dynasty belongs to the SEC—not Bama.

They have lost at home each of the last 2 years, which is interesting in it's own right

I think they are dynasty material; everyone needs some help once in a while


I also think they are dynasty material, but I don't think they've achieved a "dynasty" yet...all of these Alabama fans on here can't put together anything past 3/4.

I don't agree that dynasties need help...I believe that consistent dominance is a characteristic of a dynasty...

This Alabama "dynasty" has needed help on a consistent basis...they've often got the benefit of the doubt ahead of other teams based on media perception the last two years especially. In 2011, they got a rematch despite not even playing for their conference championship, and then last year, they get in ahead of Florida, who had the same record, for winning the SEC! Hell, why did Florida have no shot at the National Championship last year?? same argument as Bama the year before...

Alabama dominated LSU in the 2011 National Championship, but lost at home during the regular season and failed to win the SEC

Alabama wins the SEC in '12, and gets matched up with a team that probably didn't even belong in the top 10

They've had two dominating National Title appearances, but have struggled to remain undefeated each of those years...

LSU got a third chance in 2007. Oklahoma also didn't win their conference one season and still made the BCSNC.

I'd say the wins over OU by 34 and wins at A&M and Texas

If I recall, and I don't have time to verify this, but OSU played like 8 teams with a winning record, and Bama played 3.

I am saying Bama is a dynasty, they were the best team in CFB the last 2 years, but IMO didn't deserve to play for the National Title in 2011.

You're being deliberately obtuse. You know as well as I do that 6-6 in the SEC >>>>>>>>> 7-5 in the Big 12
