    I think it'd be fair to say ours "ended" after that 1997 split title.

    Yes?

    Weird.

    Wins from 1998 - 2012 [Source]

    15. Nebraska (134-61-0) 22. Alabama (110-61-0)

    I have ZERO problem admitting that Nebraska is mediocre at this time. I have ZERO problem admitting Alabama is the absolute top of the hill right now. And I have ZERO problem acknowledging this stretch as a legitimate dynasty of college football. But saying yours began when ours ended is absurd. Even suffering through Bill Callahan -- an embarrassing 27-22 at Nebraska and our first losing season since 1961 -- our program has won more games since our dynasty ended than since when yours began. Your words. Not mine. Oh, and you can add in the 21 vacated wins too and Alabama still comes up short.

    Full Disclosure: I know this was an over-reaction of a post but Whiskey does that to a guy.

    Pretty sure he meant our dynasty is just beginning (as in, because we now won our 3rd in 4 years it is officially a dynasty). Don't think he meant how you took it, as we sucked until Saban got here for a while after our SEC title in 1999.

    I think you read that wrong. Good post but he wasn't meaning that Bama's run started when yours ended (1998). I believe he just meant that Bama's is still on going due to Saban being there and tons of talent. You comparing the records from all of those down years from Bama doesn't have anything to do with the current run.

  • Simply incredibe what you guys have done. Job well done to Saban and his staff for what they have done for this program. Truly incredible. You're the ONLY team I'll ever root for in the SEC!

    Thanks for the kind words! IMO, the best coaching job in the country this year was BOB. What he did to hold everything together, and continuing it on the recruiting trail, is amazing. Alabama was there at one point, but we didn't have a BOB..... instead we hired a plethora of idiots in Dubose, Fran, Price, and Shula.

    Ya I get your point but wins alone don't make dynasties, it takes national championships. I seriously doubt were done in that department and tall kinda were after 97.
