2008 Florida or 2009 Alabama. 2011 Alabama would have been the best without question if not for the blemish and a lack of an SEC title.

Having the best defense in the modern era of college football is enough to rank 2011 Bama ahead of '10 Auburn, and probably '08 Florida, too.

Cammy Cam would have won it in the 4th. You know it, I know it, that guy over there knows it. Deal with it.

There's just no way you rank a team that won 5 games by 3 points or less, won 7 games by a touchdown or less, and gave up 3+ touchdowns in 9 games ahead of this year's Bama team.
2010 Auburn had poor special teams and an abysmal defense.

2011 Bama was the best Bama team since Bryant so I have them better than 2009, and 1992 as well. 2011 probably is the best defense but I don't know about best overall team in the BCS era. I can't really say. The would have beaten the last 5-6 teams for sure.

Pretty solid list

10 AUB and 08 UF could flip because UF had a very good defense that season, was just loaded everywhere. I understand the argument at least, now if we didn't frick up against OleMiss....

Since our 2010 team damn near embarrased the 2010 AU team with a major beat down there is NO WAY AU 2010 beats the Bama 2011 team which was several notches better than the year before.

It was pretty bad. Auburn fans complained ALL YEAR about the return game and coverage teams.

Faulty logic because 2009 Auburn almost beat us, and that '09 Bama team is the best on that list.

Did you have a single offensive half this year like the one you did in IB 2010?
:highfive:
It's all silly talking about this, but there's one serious flaw with the 2011 Bama team... they didn't go undefeated.

We had some of the best coveage teams in both KO and punts. We had a clutch kicker and a decent punter. You must be thinking about a different year.

It only took 1 page to make this an Alabama/Auburn pissing match. I'm unsure whether that is a positive or negative.
To answer the question, there is no correct answer. Since we will never know, I have no opinion on the matter.

2011 Bama hands down best of the bunch.
Posted on 1/17/12 at 1:30 pm to Alahunter
I know that this thread is about the last 6 years, but none of those teams beat '03 LSU.
Having said that, I'll take Bama '09.

At least the 07 team won the SECC and the SECW.
