Ok, tell us how Bama's 3 NCs out of the last 4 were just luck.

'Luck' isn't the right word but:
'09 - not luck but lot of close calls (Rocky Block, USCe was a close game, missed PP7 int call). Bama peaked at the right time and blasted UF (Tebow) in the SECCG and then blew-out UT.
'11 - IMO, Bama should not have been in the BSCCG. They were very fortunate to have been given a mulligan.
'12 - Had UF not beaten A&M or had we lost to A&M, then Bama doesn't even play in the SECCG/BCSCG. They had one difficult stretch in their schedule (back-to-back vs us and A&M) and they dropped a game. Not "luck" but again they were fortunate to be playing in the SECCG/BCSCG.
