Posted this on Nafoom, but figured I'd share here too: SEC Football Since 1992

[RebelBruiser]

I put a spreadsheet together a few years back, and I've updated it each year. This marks the 20th season of the SEC with 12 teams, which of course is the last season with the SEC as a 12 team league, so as we bid farewell to the 12 team era of SEC football, here are the final records of each program, ranked in order by conference record for 1992-2011:

1. Florida: 198-59-1 (0.769) Overall, 124-36-0 (0.775) SEC, 20 bowls (11-9 record), 10 division titles, 7 SEC titles, 3 national titles
2. Tennessee: 174-75-1 (0.698) Overall, 105-54-1 (0.659) SEC, 17 bowls (9-8 record), 5 division titles, 2 SEC titles, 1 national title
3. Alabama: 174-77-1 (0.692) Overall, 103-56-1 (0.647) SEC, 15 bowls (10-5 record), 7 division titles, 3 SEC titles, 3 national titles
4. Georgia: 173-75-1 (0.697) Overall, 99-60-1 (0.622) SEC, 17 bowls (12-5 record), 4 division titles, 2 SEC titles, 0 national titles
5. Auburn: 169-75-2 (0.691) Overall, 98-60-2 (0.619) SEC, 14 bowls (9-5 record), 4 division titles, 2 SEC titles, 1 national title
6. LSU: 166-80-1 (0.674) Overall, 95-64-1 (0.597) SEC, 15 bowls (11-4 record), 5 division titles, 4 SEC titles, 2 national titles
7. Arkansas: 137-104-2 (0.568) Overall, 77-81-2 (0.488) SEC, 12 bowls (4-8), 3 division titles, 0 SEC titles, 0 national titles
8. South Carolina: 120-117-1 (0.506) Overall, 65-94-1 (0.409) SEC, 9 bowls (5-4), 1 division title, 0 SEC titles, 0 national titles
9. Ole Miss: 121-116-0 (0.511) Overall, 60-100-0 (0.375) SEC, 9 bowls (8-1), 0 division titles, 0 SEC titles, 0 national titles
10. MSU: 109-126-2 (0.464) Overall, 57-102-1 (0.359) SEC, 8 bowls (5-3), 1 division title, 0 SEC titles, 0 national titles
11. Kentucky: 98-138-0 (0.415) Overall, 45-115-0 (0.281) SEC, 8 bowls (3-5), 0 division titles, 0 SEC titles, 0 national titles
12. Vanderbilt: 69-161-0 (0.300) Overall, 25-135-0 (0.156) SEC, 2 bowls (1-1), 0 division titles, 0 SEC titles, 0 national titles

One thing I find interesting is how close teams 2-6 are to each other. Florida is a very clear number 1 in almost every category. Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, Auburn, and LSU are only separated by 5 games in the loss column in overall record, and they're only separated by 10 games in the loss column in SEC record.

Obviously, Alabama and LSU's down periods of the mid-90s drag their records below what you'd expect after seeing their programs for the past 5 years or so.

Just FYI, I didn't take away forfeits or vacated wins. These are all strictly on-field results.

One thing that stands out about MSU is how bad our overall record is compared to our SEC record. Thanks, LT!

And half of the MNCs in that era won by the SEC. Going to 12 teams and adding a title game was pretty stinking brilliant on the part of Roy Kramer.

Yea, Stricklin gets it. If you stay with your current scheduling practices, I expect the next 20 years will show a better gap between your conference and overall winning percentages. Your conference record isn't all that different from ours in that same period, but our overall record is much better because we scheduled smarter. By that I mean the 2.5 game difference in our SEC records versus the 11 game difference in our overall records. Now you're the one scheduling smarter, so the next 20 years may be reversed.

Of course scheduling smart didn't help some of our teams or yours.

to see that UT is #2. They must of really kicked *** in the first ten years.

****** bowl record for most of my memory but up until the last few years the East was a trade-off between UT and UF. Kinda like the West is trending now with Bama and LSU.

I decided I finally needed to start collecting some of these a couple months ago...

He's been saying for a long time that Byrne (and now Stricklin) get how you need to schedule if you're a small fish in the SEC. UM used to get it, but for some reason they decided to take scheduling lessons from Larry Templeton. They'll be paying the price for that for most of the next decade.</p>

I wonder where the gamecocks were in this order prior to Spurrier being admitted to Augusta National?

...outside of the yearly games with FSU and the occasional pairings with Miami. The Gators haven't played a true road game outside the SEC footprint since they played at Rutgers in 1986.
