-Georgia and Tennessee... wow, must be nice to have Vandy/Kentucky on the schedule each year.


why not include florida in this as well?

Also, since you have been doing a lot of digging for this research, I'm sure you would see that historically ole miss/msu/arkansas have been relative pushovers the last several decades as well for the west to beat up on. It's not just an east issue.

I'd be curious what the longest one for Alabama would be outside of the Ears Whitworth era.


Outside of both Alabama and South Carolina's longest streaks, they both check in at the single digit marks for their second longest streaks.

Alabama: 6 2000-2001
South Carolina: 9 1991-1992

I'm guessing LSU's was in the early 90's


In 1999 LSU lost 8 games in a row.

Before that, in 1992, LSU lost 7 in a row.

During South Carolina's epic losing streak from 1998-1999, they sold out every home game. Which is why I fricking love you guys.



That is simply incredible.



It would be even more incredible if it were true.

This is one of those myths that has been told so many times everyone just assumes it's true.

Every home game was sold out.

Don't come up in here claiming to know more about our program than we do...tho y'alls knowledge of us absolutely surpasses what we know, or care to know, about your stupid asses.

Announced attendance does not mean it wasn't a sell out

It appears all the tickets may have been sold, but the stadium attendance was far from full (67,930 against Arky) is far from full.


So its kinda cool, like a good makeout session, but a makeout session with your second cousin so you cant brag that much

So we did what literally everyone else in College Football does, notably Nebraska who brag about it all the time, and I'm sure LSU has done several times...but you want to bitch about it. Ok dude.

Well at least it was a second cousin and not a first cousin. Baby won't be near as retarded this way. We think ahead in South Cack.

The 50s are the only decade (since Alabama won their first national title in the 20s) in which Alabama doesn’t claim a title. Though obviously ‘41 shouldn’t count either.

I showed you actual numbers that this story is false.

You show us where you get that every game was sold out.

It's a myth.

Every ticket was sold. That equals sold out. Asses in seats is not the same as tickets sold.
