College Football Blue Blood Schools​

@ColFootballNews: Here's how we're defining the blue blood college football schools - regular season consistency for a long, LONG time. Recent greatness - Miami - is one thing, and past glory with tons of past national titles - Minnesota - is great, but the short bursts don't really make you a blue blood.

How many times did you come up with ten wins or more? It's an easy round number to use as a cut-off, and it's really, really hard to do. For another round number, 20 - that's how many 10-win seasons are needed to make the "blue blood" cut.

Does that mean LSU and Clemson aren't elite football schools? OF COURSE NOT - they're next on the list to get into the VIP club - but ...
