Which Football short dynasty was most dominant in the 2000s

    The best part of that is that most of them absolutely hate the man.

    He wouldn't so much as stop in Tallahassee to take a shit these days and it's all because he's fed up with all of the ungrateful bastards.

    And im sorry, but this is WAY off base.

    Bowden is and always will be a legend in Tallahassee and while there are some who are still upset with him, the vast majority are over it and still think the guy is a rockstar.

    I dont agree with that

    IMO 1999 FSU was a better team.

    I will agree that the popular opinion of most will be that 2001 Miami was better, but i think that's because of the NFL talent from that team and thats not a good barometer for college.

    1999 FSU not only had explosive offense and defense, but had a lot of firepower that goes unaccounted for by most like Sebass kicking and Peter Warrick.

    JMO tho.

    I think that opinion is very regional based, many respect them...but envy? NO..there is more to life than football, as the identity of a university. Much more..but to have a great university first, plus a grand tradition in CFB, there is no need for envy of anyone.

    MIami wins it, I don't think anyone will ever have such a fiercely shining flash of talent concentrated in such a short period. But there is the drug, thug behavior scandals, that never seemed to end...

    "... There is more to life than football...". Not in the South there is not. Radio literally talks on it daily, year round.

    How can you put Michigan among those 70 teams over USC? Or ANY of those other teams over USC?

    Our 72 team was the greatest team of that decade, we won at least a share of the MNC in 74 and 78 and our 79 team came within one bad half against Stanford 21-21 tie after leading 21-0

    I would put Oklahoma up way higher than OSU and Michigan and maybe even Bama. We split the 78 Title with them, despite beating them in Birmingham

    But I believe we were something like 6-0 in Rose Bowls and OSU was 1-4 and Michigan was 0-5

    Are you really that butt hurt over my post? A post in which I recognized USC as being the most dominant program of the 2000's? I mean... what... do you want me to just list USC as the best program each decade? I even recognized Oklahoma in the 70's which you're bitching about.

    Some people just can't be pleased. I'm a Michigan St. fan and even I had to recognize UM as being a great program. They had like 40 seasons of bowl games in a row. That's insane. For someone to complain about UM being listed as one of the best dynasties is kind of ridiculous. Keep in mind this is coming from a MSU fan.

    Are all Trojan fans like this dude?

    Miami early '00s USC mid '00s Alabama late 00s/early '10s

    USC. Went 6 years without losing a game by more than a single score.

    I think if you take Miami's 3 years in the early 2000's (2000-02), and you take what Alabama has done the last 4 years (08-11), and combined it, than those 2 together fall just a little short of what USC accomplished over these 7 years (02-08).

    Those 7 years being the greatest 7 years in a row that any school has ever produced. IMO

    Horse crap!!!

    FSU in the 90's: How many consecutive top 5 finishes?
    Bama in the 70's: Averaged 10 wins a year for an entire decade (when they only played 11 or 12 counting bowl games)

    Both of those runs crush USC under Pete Carroll. He won a grand total of 1 BCS National Title in that run and took the AP in '03. Bama is poised for a run that can challenge those I mentioned earlier. Time will tell, but I'll take Bama's 2 BSCNCs in 3 years over 2 runs (UM and USC) that had a total of 2 between them. UM had a better run from the 80's into the 90's than the one mentioned.

    Back to the OP's point:
    1 - USC: did it over 7 years and multiple QBs, even though the only had 1 BCS title
    2 - Bama: 2 BCS titles in 3 years and 3 QBs took them to BCS bowls. Humiliated co-Big 10 Champ on NYD bowl in their down year. This is still going and will likely pass 1 and begin to challenge those dynasties that I mentioned above.
    3 - Miami: '01 may be the best team, but their run is the shortest, only 1 title and they did it with 1 QB

    USC went 7 straight years never losing more than 2 games.

    Bama already lost 3 in just their 2nd year. Nice 1 yr run. Disqualified for not being in SC, Miami, or FSU's league. Thks for playing.

    I know you guys count funny over here but 2 titles = 2 titles.

    Some of these people are beyond dumb. It actually pains me to see this much ignorance in one post. if i were to collect ignorance from the rest of the internet and formulate it into one post, it would fall short of the epic fail that this thread has collectively.

    You can continue to try and enlighten these people with facts,but at this point I think they are too far down the path of ignorance.

    I know you guys count funny over here but 2 titles = 2 titles.

    Dude, I put USC's run under Pete at 1 on the mini-dynasty list. Still the dynasty was in the BCS era and USC has a grand total of 1 BCS title. They took the AP in '03 when the BCS poll lost it and put OU in it after they got beat in their CCG. Bama's current run is on pace to top USC, they already have more BCSNCs and they play in the top league. Have they done it yet? Not on this roll, but they can top USC's run with this one.

    All Time Dynasties... Bama in the 70's easily tops the USC run in question here and has to be in the argument for top all time (4 NC and avg 10 wins over 10 years - only pollsters screwed them out of the only 3peat in NCAA in '77).

    Get at least halfway there, then come talk to me. So far Bama is less than halfway, 3 out of 7 years, and 1 of those years they didn't even finish top 4. Anyway, I don't doubt they could match or maybe even surpass what CPC and the Trojans did from 2002-2008. They are set up nice, and Saban has done a great job recruiting.

    I will say this though, with only 2 years left of the BCS, if USC wins the BCS MNC 1 time out the next 2 years, then USC will be a no-brainer for the best team of the BCS Era. Even if Bama or LSU were to match USC's 3rd title the following year with a 3rd title of their own, the overall 14 year performance by USC will trump both LSU and Bama.

    But, a lot's got to happen before that happens. Sure would be nice to slap the your BCS in the face and rise above this corrupted system by ending it all on top.

    No. You learned that USC went over 100 games without losing any of them by more than a single score. That is some good info to know. You will very likely never see that again.

    Well, the OP asked about the most dominant and that is a bit subjective. I would consider Bama more than halfway there, they have matched your NCAA recognized titles and are already ahead on BCS titles. I consider the titles more than X years of being very good. If Bama wins it all this year (admittedly big if), then they easily pass USC's run with respect to dominance. 3 out of 4 BCS titles would make it the most dominant "mini" dynasty of the BCS era. Similarly over X number of years, I think if LSU were to win 1 of them (and USC didn't), they would surpass USC as far as dominance over the BCS era. I'm not saying they would be tops, I'd have to look up some numbers and think on that one.

    So if USC wins one title in the next two years they are the best BCS team with one BCS trophy. Stupidest thing I've ever heard. Go back to the tree house you came out of. Dynasties are determine by championships. Obvious answer is LSU. 2 nattys, 5 SEC champs, with two years to go
