1, maybe 2 more. 2011 for sure. 2012 potentially.
Alabama won the SECCG 9 times under Saban. LSU was the SECW team Alabama beat out in most of those, and that doesn’t count 2011. LSU had a fence around Mobile (thanks to Saban) before he left Miami, and that doesn’t count an endless list of top recruits in La. that would have been at LSU but for Saban. Also, as has always been his luck, Saban was able to dominate the West during a period of unprecedented weakness in the East, paving the way for a NC. LSU would have won most of those SECCGs as well, if only they could get past Alabama.

I think it’s 3 or 4, but even 1 or 2 is proof that LSU made Saban not the other way around.

Which years?

LSU wins in 07
LSU’s D was trash in 08, 3-5 in SEC
LSU was mediocre in 09, may win west but no BCSCG that year.
No one beat Cam Newton in 10.
LSU would have won in 11, no question
LSU may have repeat in 12, not certain
LSU had 2 losses outside Bama in 13, AU still wins West
LSU was 4-4 in the SEC in 14
LSU finished 4th in West in 15
LSU was still behind AU in 16 and 17
LSU was still behind A&M in 18
LSU wins NC in 19
lol at 20 and 21
LSU wins West in 22, not a playoff contender
LSU still behind OM in 23, not a contender regardless

So where are the extra NCs outside 11 and maybe 12 if Saban doesn’t leave Miami?
