quietfan 233 Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 So Bama trails , , and in number of appearances and is only tied with ? But I though Bama was the greatest program, er, cream of the SEC, er, Mecca of college football....

KunzelTiger 0 Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 <bammer> But starting at 1981 takes out the Bear and thus makes a discussion of modern college football irrelevant! </bammer> Anyway, now that I got that out of the way, it seems to me like we are one of the SEC's best consistantly since 1981..I think requires a big huge WDE.
