Stupid post! Bama continues to roll. It sure won't be the gaturds. LSU and ATM are the lone threats.
Enjoy your arrogance. Expect to be treated like shite when the inevitable down years happen.

Like LSU has experience since 2004? Hope all that you can that Alabama will immediately decline, but the program is set up to last beyond Nick Saban. How long is entirely up to the coaching hire, but Alabama will in a position to hire a tremendous coach when the time comes, unlike previous hires.

I was referring to Petrino, and he only lost 5 in a row right? He was also only there for 5 years, correct?
Alabama versus Arkansas under Nick Saban:
1-0 against Houston Nutt
4-0 against Bobby Petrino
1-0 against John L. Smith

Chances on 1-0 vs Beilema?

It went from Meyer to Saban. My guess is Sumlin.

We'll see how Sumlin does in Year 2. He's been a trendsetter--hopefully he breaks that most persistent of Aggie trends: falling well-short of expectations (see: 2011 )
He's got everything going for him, though.

Bama isn't going anywhere. In terms of the schools that are built to be dominant over the next decade plus though:
UF
UGA
A&M
Bama
LSU
You could make an argument for any of them.
A&M is truly building a monster. Already taking over recruiting in Texas in a big way and cherry picking nationally with a great coach and a 100k+ stadium on the way along with great facilities. Next year sets up very well but honestly once these recruiting classes and facilities are in place A&M is going to be very hard to knock down going forward.
Bama is Bama and they are still in the center of great recruiting. As long as Saban is coach they are capable of winning it all every year.
UF gets first pick of recruits in Florida and that alone puts them on the list. Add in the facilities and resources and they are a force to be reckoned with to stay. Still not sold on Boom completely though.
UGA is right there as well. They have it all too. Richt is a very good coach and could put it all together though I don't know if he could dominate over the SEC. They are certainly in the conversation though because they have nothing they are lacking.
LSU is in the convo for sure based on the last decade but I'm not sure what the future looks like. A&M has effectively cut off the Texas pipeline for them and Bama and others are starting to peck away at Louisiana. LSU could easily fall a couple of notches but I could also see them remaining among the elite as well. There are cracks in the foundation though that need to be plugged.

Nobody "dominated over the SEC" this year. Everyone had at least 1 conference loss. Saban, Miles, Mussy, Richt, Spurrier, all of them dropped one (or more) to a conference opponent. That's probably going to be the rule rather than the exception over the next 10 years.
Saban had a conference loss last year too, and got to win it all.
Maybe I'm just not sure what you mean by "don't know if he could dominate over the SEC".

It will be a mix of Florida, Georgia, and LSU probably.
Add in A&M and you have the schools I'd list as swapping around the SEC title and a few national titles between once Saban leaves.

The OP was asking who would "continue the dominance". I agree it is more likely that no single team dominates so my comments were not meant as a slight to UGA. There is really nothing holding UGA back but it just seemed to me if I were betting on a team to win 3 SEC Titles in a row UGA doesn't seem like that team. Don't know if anyone is though. Richt just seems like more of a really good coach as opposed to a coach that strikes fear.
