Kevin Sumlin: 8

Sumlin and the Aggies entered the SEC with a splash back in 2012, going 11-2 in their first year in the SEC. But the Aggies have been ranked in the top 10 at one point in each of the past three seasons, and yet they’ve finished each season 8-5 and unranked.

Sumlin appears to be one the best coaches in the conference, but at some point fans are going to want results. And another 8-5 season, or worse, could be the end of Sumlin in College Station.
