re: Why is the state of Alabama so insecure?

BAMA doesn't claim '66, but they should, and that would be a three-peat.
Got screwed in a couple other years as well by yankee AP/UPI pukes
Bama got screwed for several reasons...
1) Did not play a single top 10 team during the regular season whereas Notre Dame and Michigan State played each other in the last game of the season.
2) Final rankings came out before the bowl game... Therefore, Bama's impressive victory over #6 Nebraska.
3) Alabama fatigue and the fact that nobody had ever won three in a row.
4) George Wallace.

Large swaths of this country doesn't give 2 rips about college football. NFL DOMINATES TV viewership.
I'd be curious how this works out in terms of total viewership.
There are roughly 15 NFL games per weekend. CFB has 60 or so every weekend just at the FBS level. And then you throw in FCS, DII, DIII and NAIA which as a group... take away some of the fan base that would normally watch CFB on TV.

re: The sad decline of an SEC landmark - Legion Field

Bama used to play all of the big home games on the schedule at Legion Field. Did it for years. I think they may have played a game or two around the state but that’s was way before my time.
Looking back at old schedules... It looks like they played about half their home games at Legion and half at Denny stadium. It is rather random as to who they played where... but it looks like Tennessee was at Legion traditionally. But the other SEC teams or OOC games could be at either venue.
As the post above yours talked about... Ole Miss and State used to play a bunch of games in Jackson.
Arkansas split games between Fayetteville and Little Rock about half and half until the Fayetteville stadium had greater capacity. Then Little Rock slowly got phased out.
Oregon and Oregon State used to play in Portland a lot until they got their stadiums built up in the late '60s. I think Oregon's stadium before Autzen... (Hayward Field) seated less than 20K for football. It is famous as a track and field venue.

Most coaches would leave LSU for Texas
I don't think this is really the way that this would work.
Very few coaches would LEAVE LSU for Texas.
But most coaches would pick Texas if given a chose between LSU and Texas as per available resources.
Very few coaches would turn down either job.

That thread about tiger land somewhere on here got me to go on Google Maps to see what all the hoopla was about. I was actually shocked and how close that shite hole looking place was to campus and that students still swarmed there. Tuscaloosa certainly has its issues but it’s at least isolated and not right off the strip or downtown.
Tiger Land is at least a half mile from the south edge of LSU and a good mile to a mile and a half from the main campus.
Which is probably a good thing for LSU. It is so crazy and rowdy.

Looking forward to getting back to the "Austin has too much to do" and "Austin is too woke" stuff.
Since you all had a couple of good teams lately... we haven't heard much of that lately. I kind of miss it.

As often as not... both Texas and OU play like crap in the game after the Cotton Bowl game. The loser because they spend too much time dwelling on the loss... And the winner because they spend the whole next week listening to all the platitudes.

I don’t blame the good folks from KY for claiming it
Kentucky beat OU in a bowl... Tennessee beat Kentucky in the regular season. (Tennessee lost to mediocre Miss State early that year in Starkville)
All three teams had one loss. All three of them claim that title... But OU got the wire service title... which was given before bowl games in those days.

You’re describing most fanbases.
While true...
Texas fans will always resort to talking about how there is so much to do in Austin and that football just isn't all that big a deal.
Some of them will start in on the academic smack. How school is way more important than football.
Some of the more conservative fans will start bitching about how "woke" Austin is... and say that is why they are not winning.
That is how they are different than other fan bases.

What’s it like being an Oklahoma fan and playing patsies for the past 100 years and being great at beating patsies and then joining the SEC and being bottom tier?
Being that you probably weren't even aware for 20% for most of those 100 years...
You probably have no clue about how good the SEC was compared to the other conferences.
Like you probably don't know that the Big 8 was the only conference to ever go 1-2-3 in a final poll and two of those Big 8 teams beat the crap out of SEC teams in bowl games ...the third one had to settle for beating LSU during the regular season.
You weren't around when over a 16 year period Nebraska kept getting matched with LSU in bowl games... and never lost to them.
You can dog OU all you want for not performing up to snuff in the SEC as a conference member...
But OU and Nebraska were legit back in the day... As good on a yearly basis as the top two SEC teams were.
