Does being a blue blood really mean anything?

[Chewbaccer]

I mean, nobody gives a shit what your team did 50+ years ago.

We just watched two blue bloods get taken down by two non blue bloods today.

 

[Hook'Em0608]

Clearly, I vote it doesn't mean shit.

 

[jjc2009]

It helps you feel better when you haven’t won shit in 30 years

 

[The Derski]

I think all that matters is great recruiting and great coaching.

 

[ericd7633]

No. I'd much rather be Clemson than tell everybody what ND did in the fucking 1920's and 1940's.

 

[droider]

LSU and Clemson are BOTH blue bloods

 

[Wild Turkey]

LSU and Clemson are BOTH blue bloods

It's like you're the Oprah of CFB.

You're a blue blood
And
You're a blue blood
And
You're a blue blood
And
You're a blue blood

 

[droider]

Nope, never said that but both programs won a natty long before the modern era

 

[Mistaken4193]

Modern Blue Bloods are:

Bama
Ohio State
LSU
Oklahoma
USC
Clemson
Florida

That’s teams that have done shit since 2000.

Does it hurt being wrong all the time?

I wouldn't know since I never am, but I'm sure you could tell us?

If you're including USC, I think you have to include Texas.

 

[steelerssb]

As long as voters justify rating Nebraska because "it's Nebraska" then yes. At least in terms of rankings. On field not as much, we just have to hear about how team X is totally back.

(Not a shot at Nebraska because this could apply to others as well).

 

[Mistaken4193]

Yeah, they were good until the game where Colt Bitched out.But they have been awful ever since. But every team on my list except Oklahoma has won Multiple NCs since 2000 and only reason I included OU is because they have played for like 100 of them.

We don't count AP titles in the BCS era.

Sick diss of Auburn man.

Also Texas was one of the top teams of the 00's. They've taken a big step back since then, but so has USC, and neither of them have a real excuse for ever being bad.

 

[GoldRusher]

Since the playoff era no, that list is incorrect.

The real list reads:

Bama
Clemson
Ohio State


and that's it unless LSU wins the NC game. OU is close but they haven't been able to get into the club yet either, they need to win a NC as well.
USC and UF are not close, UF MIGHT be trending up but they haven't even made a CCG so.. no

The playoff era has created a separation in CFB that has never been seen imo, very very exclusive club these days, big separation between those 3 programs and everyone else.

So did Rutgers.

[PSUTE]
