Blue Bloods are the teams that have made football great, and what it is today.

It's going all in on Football and pumping millions of dollars into it year after year when others sit on the sideline doing nothing except being mediocre.

It something that spans generations and teams that are still relevant today.
Princeton is an original blue blood but not today.

It's the teams that are either loved or hated, not much in between.
It's the teams that your grandfather talked about 70 years ago and who you talk about today.

Some ask why some teams get the benefit of the doubt when it comes to rankings and bowl games. Well it's because those teams are the ones who pumped in the most time, money, and effort into the system over the years to get football to what it is today.

Oh, and being able to kick the NCAA in the balls and take away their TV money.
Your Welcome.

You should be a union negotiator sir... either that or the guy that decided to bail out the banks and car makers...

I just love when these convos come up people bring up ancient history. It's what your school has done lately....that matters.

My school doesn't have a history of wins...but I wasn't around for most of my school's history anyway so what do I care.


What I do know is that in the recent era of my team, I've watched them play for two National Titles and win one.

Just because the team your grandfather's watched had some success have you actually lived to experience it yourself ?

2003 was a split title, but I guess the consensus is USC was the 2003 national champs, but if I were an LSU fan, I'd claim it.

meet me at the Sonic and fight me

Does PTC stand for Peachtree City?

If so, I'm staying at the Quality Inn in Stockbridge tonight before moving on to Athens for work, I can be there in 30 minutes.

Find another team in any damn sport that had at least a .833% win percentage every year for 14 straight years.

I consider anyone who thinks they are a "blue blood" and that it gives them some kind of "status", to really just be a Blue Veined Throbber.

To be a Blue Blood a team will have needed to do things that change the course of football history or set all time records with regularity.

That is all.

Well if we are talking about teams that won many years ago then I guess you are right. But if you are talking about teams with a record of winning the past decade then FSU aint in the discussion !

The ACC doesn't deserve a team of homers. Worst Power 5 conference by a long shot this year. Pretty sure Clemson is going to destroy UNC. UNC had a Boise State like schedule and is a giant fraud more than likely.
