Even more impressive than Huepel's record is the fact that he's been at a talent disadvantage in a big chunk of those matchups. Over half of his Top 10 & Top 25 wins have been against teams with anywhere from better talent to significantly better talent:

Alabama x2
Florida x2
LSU ×1
Clemson x1
Oklahoma x1

Those first couple years he won exclusively with what was left of Pruitt's roster after the mass exodus and a few key contributors from the transfer portal. We're lucky to have him.

And Bama is the one. Amazing!


It's a good one to have if you can get it.

It’d be interesting to see how many of those are in and out of conference games.

It’d make it easier to see what the level of impact Georgia and Alabama have had on the disparity of range.

1. Texas - 10 (Non-SEC/Big-12 In-Conference)
2. UGA - 8

I figured I was wrong which is why I made the comment in confusion.

Your analysis is way more correct. For some reason i was taking this as top 25 matchups where both teams are ranked, but then Vandy wouldn't be there that often
