There is no dominance if you start beating him in recruiting.

Except when was the last time the Tide lost 2 or 3 games in regular season?


The answer is 2010. Let that sink in.

I say good. He sets the bar as GOAT and everyone else needs to up their game - LSU included. Ole Miss seemed to have their number with Freezus though.

Not sure good or bad, but it’s certainly boring.

extremely bad
especially since it is fake and not earned
don't watch Shama and never will
but the constant fake media felatio of Shama is boring and nauseating

how can it possibly be fun for a fanbase to expect to beat the #3 team by 40 points?

this "dynasty" as contrived as it is needs to be eliminated or we'll see decreased interest in college football

If you travel outside of the south, the rest of the country hates him and everyone you ask will tell you that Bama is the dirtiest program in football history.

Any team in any sporting dominating the sport is bad. People get sick of seeing the same shite every year.

This has to be hurting viewership no one wants to watch a game where the output is always guaranteed one sided

Keep the playoff to 4 teams and shut them out of the playoff by beating them


Right and you will also see a two loss LSU team in it as well with a chance for redemption.

Bad. Takes the guess work out of CFB which is part of the fun. Every year you can go ahead and pencil in Bama to the title game. I'm losing interest.

2009- Bama vs Texas
2011- Bama vs LSU
2012- Bama vs Notre Dame
2015- Bama vs Clemson
2016- Bama vs Clemson
2017- Bama vs Georgia

9 seasons, 6 Bama title games, 5 Bama wins.

Not even close to this kind of dominance. This type of hegemony is absolutely terrible for the sport of college football.

It’s without a doubt bad! At times it feels like we are all just competing for 2nd place. That’s not good for the sport. Sometimes dynasties are good for ratings but not good for the sport. You never want all other teams to feel like they don’t have a chance. The NFL is the best sport and it has the most parity. Coincidence, I think not.

Haven't watched a bama game in years. Saban is bad for CFB.

This is really what it comes down to. Les Miles was 3-2 against him in their first 5 games. If you recruit equally, you can be a brain dead X's and O's coach and beat him. Saban really is not an elite gameday coach. He does everything else at an elite level, but coaching is really not that great.

Worst thing to happen to CFB. The other programs will revolt once Emmert is out as President of NCAA.
