Crimson Red Sports

The following was stolen from the OP and posted on tiger droppings, then posted on woolly AL by SWM323, then stolen from Woolly Al by me and posted here because I found it fascinating.  Thanks to the OP whomever he is.

the following are SEC dynasties who had a .800 or higher winning percentage over a 10 year period.

(Note: Tennessee had three straight undefeated seasons from 1927-1929 -though all three years had ties- and had a period from 1926-1932 where they only lost 2 football games)

2) Alabama 1971-1980

1 National Title (1938)
1 Perfect Season (1938 11-0)

(Note: Thoough this period encompasees 11 years, it only encompasses 10 seasons as Alabama, like most colleges, did not field a team in 1943 due to World War II. by the end of 1945, bama had 20 straight years of of winning more than 80% of their games).

8) Florida 1991-2001

6 Conference Titles (1991; 1993; 1994; 1995; 1996; 2000)
1 National Title (1996)
(Note: I'm aware I'm over by a year on this team, but both their 1991 and 2001 teams were 10-2, so it didn't matter which year I included for their decade).

Very fascinating! Thanks for bringing it here.

Alabama looks like a team that had longer years than anyone else when they go on a run. We do have to take into consideration CBB was there in those 60's and 70's and in the in first part of 80's. Gosh he proved he was the best for all those winning records. RTR!

I think that we are in one of those streches now *knocks on wood* ;D

Now you got it going. I hope so too, if we are not CNS will have a heart attack. We won't have to worry about him leaving. lol, RTR!
