When did the twelve game schedule come into play? For most of Jackie's tenure (if not all) he had one less game that would would have been an automatic win against a cupcake like Mullen did. Mullen was great for sure, but he had 9 or 10 wins extra simply from a 12 game schedule.

Also, he talks about Mullen taking us to 8 straight bowls but but let's be honest the St. Pete bowl we didn't deserve. Plus, a coach we fired took us to two in a row.

Like others have said looking at the last 100 years he's absolutely right. Looking at the last 25 he's not close to being right. Arkansas and Ole Miss are absolutely harder to win at if you look at any data point for that time period.
