Varsity Numbers: A Couple of Goodbyes

In an era with 85-scholarship restrictions, teams aren't supposed to accomplish what the Crimson Tide have accomplished over the last eight seasons. Since the start of 2008, they have lost just 12 games -- as many as both Kansas and UCF lost in 2015 alone. And they have finished either first or second in the overall F/+ rankings for seven straight years after ranking a mere eighth in 2008.

In an era of parity, this isn't supposed to happen.
