How would his de facto national championship games that he lost (to Florida, to Oklahoma) be any different than a playoff system? His team was playing for the national championship and lost.

That is a very good question. I would have loved to have seen GT play Colorado in 1990 when we had split the title with them.

This is one of those questions we will never know but have to guess at like the pollsters did back in 1990.

He'd have found a way to consistently lose the big one. That was his pattern.

Same can be said about Spurrier or Meyers. Win some. Lose some
Meyer.....lose the big one?

Spur Dog was 1-1 in national title games. Meyer was 2-0.

Bowden had a ton of games with the national title on the line and lost. Oklahoma in 1980. All those wide rights and a wide left vs scUM. 96 and 97 vs UF, 98 vs Tennessee, 93 vs Notre Dame, etc.

Not too long ago the ACC could give the SEC a run. Certain sports, better than the SEC
