Rowing?So Washington is not always on the list of Blue Blood football teams. Are you only looking at softball blue bloods?
Blue Blood
To be a true blue blood all teams should have these boxes checked. Top 10 all time in wins. Multiple Heisman winners. Multiple national titles. Long list of All Americans. Your team is currently 25th in wins all time, 743. A blue blood they are not.
There's been a couple of these threads in the past few years and Washington made the list on each and everyone.
Were they all blue blood list threads you started? And I'm not trashing your team. What I listed are facts. Every other true blue blood program has the things I mentioned in comment # 20.
They’re kind of a pastel or baby blue.I'm sorry, I just can't stop laughing at the notion Washington is a blue blood.
That poll scientifically proves that 6% of the respondents are morons. 6% say Alabama is not a blue blood, and 6% say Washington is.Haven’t you guys learned ANYTHING after years on message boards?
Stupid people have computers too...
We had a no win season in 1979.. then things changed. Every single team has had a few down years.. even those top ranked blue bloods..the difference is blue bloods eventually rebound and tend to be competitive year in and year out..Wow, so enough Husky fans voted to get 6%. Riddle me this, how many “blue bloods” have ever gone 0-12 in a season? Washington is a notch below the real UW in Wisconsin and they aren’t a blue blood.

No, blue bloods have down times but they do not go winless in any year.
Hell, f'n Ole miss is more of a blue blood than Washington. So are Arkansas, Auburn, LSU, Tennessee, Texas A&M, Miami, Florida St, Nebraska, Iowa...
My football 4 blue bloods are:
Notre Dame
Alabama
Oklahoma
USC
I can see how he'd just put Alabama, USC, and ND up there, but cutting it if between Oklahoma and OSU seemed weird. OSU has more recognized championships, more wins, and a higher winning percentage than Oklahoma. OSU has been one of the most consistent programs in the last 70 years. We've had 6 losing seasons since 1940... Been one of the winningest programs each decade since the middle of the 1900's for the most part.Rather odd.
Oklahoma never really entered the mix till the 1950s. Michigan was a mainstay well before them for decades. Ohio State was as big as Oklahoma when they really entered the mix, and some time before them; so hard to exclude them as well.
Tennessee has to be included.
Not till the late 60's/70s do Texas and Nebraska really show up. I guess one should include Army and Navy and likely Pittsburgh.

Everyone weights things differently, so I could see how they left michigan off... They really haven't won anything since OSU started winning... Which was a long time ago. michigan does still (temporarily) have the most wins, though.Living and knowing history is one thing.
The lack of even googling history is a pure shame in this digital age.
You'd think people would know better?
While you may want to kill me, the lack of Michigan is what is most rudimentarily horrific in his 4 team Blue Blood list.
