    Easily the most talented team that Bear Bryant ever coached. They went on to destroy the then undefeated Oklahoma Sooners in their bowl game and they were voted the national championship.

    The 1950 championship is easily the crown jewel of national championships that the SEC can boast. This came in era before twitter, before computers, before performance enhancing drugs, and before color tv.

    Most Americans jumped on the Kentucky bandwagon from the comforts of their prairie homes by tuning into the game via AM shortband radios to hear the exhilarating coverage during this epic season.

    Lets pay homage to the 1950 wildcat team. They were truly one of college footballs best teams of all time because they did something most college programs can't do today. Win a national title and not take the easiest road available to get there. They stood up to any and all competition and the Sagarian formula was used to award the then #7 team in the nation the national championship. Hats off to the Wildcats... The greatest national championship team the SEC has ever put on the field.

    Does the creation of this thread have anything to do with the thread about the two 1997 National Champs?

    I'll assume it has everything to do with it. God forbid there be a thread about college football not involving the SEC.

    As for this thread, I'm confused. What's to talk about? A team nobody was alive to see? Maybe I'm not respecting history or whatever but watching football games in black and white totally bores me.

    And based on the photo before black players too.

    If there's no brothers, it's not the same game.

    yes it is, well except they probably equally emphasied 'student' and 'athlete' instead of focusing only on the 'athlete' part.

    Black folk are why we now wear facemasks, and mouth pieces lol, I'm not kidding either. Sure white guys get tall and can outweigh anyone, but show me a white guy who runs 4.24-4.33 40's.

    Don Beebe (who could forget that guy!) and Kevin Curtis both ran 4.21s although curtis put up the 4.21 at his pro day and not at the combine
