first of all, 44.9 divided by 4 means 11 games a year avg.

and that is amazing playing in the sec west. in the absence of saban LSU would be top dog of the west and the whole SEC. it is what it is; we have a nemesis; that's life.

While LSU plays more games in the regular season, we also should note the SEC is a much, much stronger and deeper conference than at any other time in it's history.

If we look at college football from 2000 to 2005, we see the SEC having 1 NC. From 2006 to 2012, the SEC has 7 NC earned by 4 different SEC programs.

I think having 7 seasons out of the last 9 with 10 wins or better when you play in the SEC is amazing and not an accomplishment to be taken lightly 12 game seasons or not.

With all due respect to any Pac 10 or Big 10 or ACC 10 win programs, but with the SEC being 5-1 in the bowls and looking at 2-3 more wins yet to come....get out of here with that "22 out of the current top 25 teams" stuff.
