Every SEC team's best decade of football....

[TUSK]

I found it VERY interesting... look at all the teams that have had good runs in the last 10-15 years....

do yall agree with MSU's assessment?

[IMissJack]

Arkansas and aTm are skewed by the SWC. Quite a few wins against Rice, SMU, TCU (bad in those days), Tech, Houston (up and down), Baylor etc.

Cant really argue it. In the 40's we were really good with our back to back National Championships in 1940 and 1941 (Alabama does it- so can we)- but we didnt finish the decade very strong. Jackie had a good run but wasnt consistent enough. Mullen has been the consistent one for us- much like Stands was over Williams.

Jackie and Williams won bigger- but Mullen and Stands have been our consistent guys for the most part

Don't forget that Our last 10 years contain a 2 win season in 2008.

Seems about right to me. I believe there a couple of other opportunities (outside 2014) for us to finish better than 4th in SEC W ... but didn't capitalize.

SDS is still a thing??

A bit asinine trivia to talk smack about not having finished higher than 4th. We finished #15 in the country in 2010. What rank we were in the SEC West standings aren't nearly as important. In 2016 the 2nd place team in the West (Auburn) finished #24. We had a better season in 2010 than Auburn did in 2016, regardless of the fact that we were 5th of 6 in the West and they were 2nd of 7 this past year.

False? We were 4-8 in Croom's last year, and would have been 6-6 + a bowl had we not scheduled road games at a good ACC team (Georgia Tech, division co-champion) and the #2 WAC team (back when the WAC was good). Or maybe not because Croom could have still blown a much easier home game. But even Croom never had a 2-win season.

That La Tech loss that year was much better than losing to USA at home

What the hell?

We went 4-8 in 2008, basically one game worse record wise than we were this year.

Well pardon me. Those years were so disastrous my memory is skewed. They all run together in my mind and i try to forget them. My methods have appeared to work. But, By all means a 4-8 record is perfectly acceptable along with getting blanked in EB by 45 points if not mistaken.

I was wrong. Either way it was a shitty season.
