The formula
Basic model
Dominance, 20% -- number of national championships
Peak strength, 20% -- winning percentage for best 50 seasons in program history
Since integration, 30% -- winning percentage over the past 50 seasons (1969-2018)
Early modern, 20% -- winning percentage over the middle 50 seasons (1919-1968). Mostly pre-integration and included some games against non-college teams
Pre-modern, 10% -- winning percentage over the first 50 seasons (1869-1918) *mostly pre-standardization of current rules and many games against non-college teams

I think the best we can hope for is a good run like Clemson has had. Clemson will be back in their place soon enough. These are just the facts.

Why does a school need to go back to what they historically have been? Why cant they find a way to stay on top? This is the same crap logic that states A&M will never be anything and they should just remain a middle of the pack team. That logic is garbage.
The landscape has changed since the 60s. or the 40s or earlier. Teams change. It all depends on the situation the school is in and who the coach is. Right now, A&M has great situation - and great coach, I expect us to be at the top soon - I expect great things this season.

UGA #2. Seriously?? They haven't won a natty in almost 40 years. Good team but nobodies putting them in their top 7-8 and probably not top 10. If you put them up there based on recent success than you gotta put Clemson at #2. OU has 7, tOSU has 8, Miami has 5. All those teams have to go ahead of UGA. And ND and USC it's not even open for debate. I get the SEC homer mentality but WTF??queso1 said:
