2011 Easily one of best teams in all of College Football history... Just ran out of gas and got out coached at the end. A 12 game run with 9 games against ranked teams. Never anything close to that. A 13th game against a 10th.

Agree 2011 is one of the best ever. But we didn't run out of gas. We had the misfortune of playing in the same division with another of the best teams ever, that we were forced to play TWICE.
That Bama defense may have been the best of all time. The fact that our defense kept their offense out of the end zone for 7 quarters and an overtime was an incredible accomplishment.
The win in The Game of the Century, in Tuscaloosa, on CBS in primetime after two weeks of Super Bowl like buildup should have gone down as one of the greatest wins in one of the greatest games ever.
What is so annoying, is all the talk about Baylor and TCU and the Big 12 offenses this year. Where was that in 2011 with Oklahoma State??? Missing out on a chance to see an all time SEC defense against that air raid Big 12 offense was the biggest disappointment for the country with that sham of a Rematch.
For us, well, the disappointment was even worse.

Easy cowboy. 2011 was a really good team. But the best teams in CFB history don't get shutout in their bowl game, let alone completely dominated. Bama had 21 first downs. We had 5. Bama had 384 yds. We had LESS THAN 100 YARDS. And Oregon vastly outgained us that year. We won the game because we won the turnover battle 3-0. Go back and check the SEC cship game box score, where Georgia stomped all over us until they turned it over twice and HB7 went intergalactic on them with return yardage.
The 2011 team was resilient and had playmakers on D. Also had NFL talent at RB and OL. But overall the O that year was anemic. It was not one of the best teams in CFB history.
