We’ll start this list by acknowledging right from the beginning that it is not a fair fight.

Ten SEC teams have been in the league since they started playing football as a conference in 1933, while others have joined during expansions in 1992 and 2012. So when comparing their winning percentages, it can be like comparing apples to oranges.

Still, we thought it could be interesting to take a look at which SEC programs have been the most successful from a history perspective before things get shaken up by the start of the 2015 season. Enjoy.

Note: Records were pulled from the football media guide for each team, where possible. To be included, the game should have been a SEC member versus a fellow SEC member at the time the game was played. Records should not include games played against teams that are in the conference now, but weren’t at the time the game is played. Conversely, they should include games against teams that are no longer in the conference, but were SEC members at the time the game was played.
