This appears to be an Opinion Poll using NC's as a somewhat
deciding factor when it suits the author.

Polls have got to be consistent. This one isn't.

The Top 10 "Winningest" P5 programs over the last 25 years
are...

1- Ohio State .812
2- Fla State .758
3- Alabama .742
4- Oklahoma .731
4- Florida .731
6- Va Tech .724
7- Nebraska .718
8- Wisconsin .712
8- USC .712
10-Georgia .706

LSU, Auburn and Texas have no business being on that list
in the Top10.

This is kind of the same problem with SoS averages.

In such a world, it's better to have 2 8-5 seasons than it is to have a 15-0 season and an 0-12 season.

I personally though the author didn't put enough into national championships and Ohio St should be #4 on the list, moving FSU and Florida into #2 and #3.

And I bet if you asked Ohio St fans which would they rather have, another NC or higher ranking in this list because of win%, they'd take that NC. Which speaks to the value of them.

I understand all of that and I'm not really debating you.
This was a link you posted not created.

But even using NC's as a major factor he does go against that.

Bama with 5 titles in 25 years is at #1. But Ohio St has 2
and they rank over FSU and UF who both have 3.

And he ranks Oklahoma who has 1 over both USC and Nebraska
who have 2.

He's not consistent. There is no way to determine how he is
compiling his rankings. That's why I listed the winningest teams.
His top 14 re the only teams that have won a NC over the last 25 years. But he doesn't rank them by total NC's...he just makes changes whenever he wants.

So if Ohio State's 2 NC's put them above FSU and UF, who each have 3, because
they have a better winning percentage...and he puts Oklahoma
with 1 title over USC and Neb, who each have 2, because they have a better winning
pct. he could put UGA, VPI and Wisconsin over LSU, Auburn and
Texas who only have 1 title. (The difference in titles would be
the same)

USC has 0, 1 max if you pretend the NCAA didn't snatch it.

You're damn right I'd rather Ohio State had more national titles than a higher ranking.
