WE need to improve on this list.
If you want to last in the SEC, you have to win and win consistently. After all, 13 of the SEC’s 14 current member schools have reached a bowl in the last two seasons (sorry, Kentucky) and all 14 schools have posted win percentages of .500 or better in more than half the seasons in their respective programs’ histories.
Here’s a rundown of how often SEC teams posted .500 records or better from their first seasons through 2014:
TEAM TOTAL SEASONS .500 OR BETTER SEASONS PERCENTAGE
Alabama 120 103* 85.8%
Arkansas 121 88 72.7%
Auburn 123 94 76.4%
Florida 109 84 77.1%
Georgia 123 99 80.5%
Kentucky 122 65 53.3%
LSU 122 94 77.0%
Mississippi State 116 71 61.2%

South Carolina 121 72 59.5%
Tennessee 117 92 78.6%
Texas A&M 120 84 70.0%
