re: Saban-Jimbo could be best SEC coaching rivalry ever

First of all great coaches on Saban Meyer level don't go have a losing record in conference with top three talent . Hell they also don't have multiple seasons of 3 4 losses in a crappy conference. Jimbo is just another Les miles . Second Jimbo is driving a Camry . No matter how fast he goes it will never beat a Ferrari . Aggy will always be aggy . They have never won a NC after world war 2 and they never will . To be honest you don't even quality to be our little brother because at least the swamp trash has won a NC.

You guys will NEVER be relevant. I doubt Jumbo will even have a season where he wins 11 games. If he couldn't do it at FSU without Winston then he will never do it at Aggy. I will enjoy the free win we have every year.

But keep staying delusional it's what aggy does best

Saban will retire in 3 years and Jimbo will have moved on. Bama is all-world and TAMU is bottom tier of the West. This will never be a coaching rivalry.

This.

I’ll also never understand why developing a great QB and then winning with him is a strike against a coach

Neither will this guy:



...who won with this guy:

Do you think a Saban coached/recruited team would have had the season of Jimbo's final year at FSU? It's laughable you hyphenated Saban's name to Jimbo's.

He won't for sure be here the full 10 years, but the minimum barring a scandal is four years.

Lol if you think those situations and players are remotely similar

But keep on not understanding, sporto, after all, you're an aggie, it's what you do.

Solid, well thought post! Aggy will never be FSU like. Fran ran from Bama to Aggy, we saw how that played out!

Someone bookmark this thread and we can revisit it in 3 years.

Just one mans opinion but I think in 3 years Aggies will be hell on wheels.
No reason for them not to be.

So if a team hasn’t won in the past then they can’t be good now.

Pretty much, yes.

In Post-WW2 College football, the elite programs are pretty much set and its very hard for a new program to break in and actually win a Championship. If you go back to WW2 and take all the major National Champions of the polling era, the last time we saw a "new" National Championship that hadn't previously won a Title since WW2 was Florida in 1996.

In other words, its been 23 year since we had a new Post-WW2 National Champion. Obviously that means its not very common.

Prior to that, it was Florida State in 1993.

The only era in which we actually saw a rash of "new" Post WW2 National Champions crowned was in the year immediately following scholarship limitations being put into place. Limiting the number of scholarships a program could give out brought on a short-lived era of newfound parity in which there were quite a few "new" Post-WW2 Champs crowned:

1980- Georgia
1981- Clemson
1982- Penn State
1983- Miami
1984- BYU

1990- Colorado
1990- Georgia Tech
1991- Washington

We saw 8 "new" Post-WW2 National Champs crowned during just a 12-year period. This was college football grappling with its new parity caused by scholarship limitations.

Prior to Georgia winning the title in 1980, there had only been one "new" National Champ crowned during the previous 16 seasons... that was Nebraska in 1970.

All this is to say, its very difficult for any team to break the mold and win a title.... Oregon (2010/2014) and Virginia Tech (1999) are the only two programs without a Post WW2 NC to even make it to a title game in the last 20 years.
