More Data Concerning Dodd in the SEC

Alright, here are the finishes of all of the SEC teams during the Dodd-SEC Era. GT is highlighted in Yellow.

This chart shows the average finish of each team from 1945-1963. I also broke it down by the average finish percentile. As you can see, GT was only behind Ole Miss during this Era.

Now, as I tried to explain to some of the Bama fans, Tech's downward trend in the early '60's was generally attributed to QB play.

Years3_medium
One Bama fan chose to truncate the years 1945-1955 from the Dodd-SEC Era so I did that. Tech was the 6th best SEC program from 1956-1963 based on average finish. The only teams ahead of Tech were Ole Miss, Auburn, LSU, Bama, and Florida. But as I countered the Bama fans, during the Lothridge years, Tech outperformed Florida and Auburn making Tech the fourth best program from 1961-1963.

Conference reallignment

Tech, Clemson, FSU, maybe Miami to SEC, wishful thinking. As a Dawg Fan It makes since. Move these in- state rivals in -conference. Its a win-win for everybody, and we’d(dawg nation ) get Clemson back on a regular basis : )
