Alabama went just 67-55 in the decade before Nick Saban came to Tuscaloosa and turned the Tide into the winningest machine in college football. It was just 39-41 in SEC play, including three 2-6 seasons. There were losses to Northern Illinois, Southern Miss and Central Florida.
There were still moments for Bear Bryant’s old program — namely, a couple of 10-2 seasons.
