The SEC Network has announced a new special, ‘Decade of Dominance’ which will highlight the incredible run the conference has been on. The special will air on Wednesday, Aug. 14 at 8 p.m. ET, coinciding with the 10-year anniversary of SEC Network.
‘Decade of Dominance’ was directed by Emmy Award-winner Rory Karpf and is narrated by Luke Bryan.
The film will feature behind-the-scenes moments and mic’d up sound and interviews with pivotal players. Heisman Trophy winners Derrick Henry, Joe Burrow and DeVonta Smith are featured, as are Patrick Queen, Justin Jefferson, Kirby Smart, Nakobe Dean, Jordan Davis, Mac Jones, Brock Bowers and Ladd McConkey.
“We made the creative decision to tell this story in a non-linear fashion”, said Karpf in a release. “We wanted to look at the specific characteristics that factored into the SEC having so much success in the CFP era. Watching this footage was a real treat for the players and we were able to get some awesome reactions, along with never before told stories. That’s what is so cool in getting to be a documentary filmmaker, it never turns out exactly the way you envision when starting out. It’s one of the joys for me of nonfiction storytelling.”
The film will show the athletes watching their younger selves on screen, reminiscing about their time in the SEC and highlighting exclusive clips that feature unique sound and access with coaches Kirby Smart and Nick Saban, along with Burrow, Davis and Henry.
In the 10 years of the College Football Playoff, the SEC has garnered12 appearances and six National Championships – the most of any league.
