I know this is a troll but what makes a team a blue blood? Recent success or long time success? Cause OU hasn’t won shite since 2000

Bluebloods are the teams that have been at the top forever. They're the teams your grandfather remembers. Recency has nothing to do with it. We've been through this enough.

Oklahoma has a fantastic history. They've won their conference 50 times, and that's while spending most of their history in the same conference as Nebraska, who's won their conference 49 times. In comparison, Alabama has won 36 conference championships.

This.

We might be better off to separate blue bloods and nuevo rich.

OU also played in a conference with most of the teams being among the teams that lose most often (Kansas, Kansas St, Iowa State, Oklahoma State), while Alabama plays in a conference that has 6 of the top 13 teams in
all time wins (Bama, Tenn, UGA, AU, UF. LSU)

Not trying to diminish OU, but the Big 8 was overall not a tough conference. I think Alabama had over 100 more games against top 20 teams than OU, maybe more.
