*Among current SEC teams
Football - in the AP Poll era
Vanderbilt: 25 years (1983-2007)
Missouri: 13 years (1984-1996)
Texas A&M: 9 years (1958-1966)
Vanderbilt: 8 years (1960-1967)
Kentucky: 8 years (1966-1973)
We didn't know what we would find when we set out on this. But this is quite the crew here.

Given how terrible we were between Bear Bryant and Emory Bellard, I'm surprised it wasn't longer.

Vandy has a good excuse, but the others

So no SEC teams from the West?

I was truly expecting a bunch of Vandy/Kentucky streaks and, no offense to you State fans, a Miss St streak sprinkled in somewhere.

TA&M wasn't in the west when their streak occurred, so I guess not.

So were we. No offense taken. Historically, it hasn’t been good. Just glad we’re able to be respectable these days.

Between 1958-1966, A&M won a total of 25 games.
Their record during that time was 25-59-6.

Surprising that we aren’t on the list

I don’t know why. You’ve seen our overall record. Damn near batting a perfect .500

Saved by winning the Egg Bowl in 1970 (had State lost, would have been 10 losing seasons in a row 1964-1973)

Yeah but have you seen aTm's endowment?

Hey now. Mizzou was runner up in a lot of the games during that streak.
