Best programs of the past 5 years

SEC fans aren't going to like this list.

you're right.

However, having Georgia ahead of LSU in any list, is indefensible. Just on the grounds of the NC, LSU should be ahead.

I see how they broke it down but still. It won't be popular, but SEC teams have to play SEC teams all year...and that's your reason for why they're low.

LSU at number 7 is absurd.

Yea.

If 2 championships aren't weighted enough to be ahead of Georgia, that's kinda silly.

6 years and i think lsu is number 2

The 2003 championship doesn't count since that was 6 years ago

Good point.

However, any school with an NC in the past 5 years should be ranked ahead of UGA.

And another good point, lol.


I'd still like for Ruffalo to respond to how the SEC just dominates this list that HE posted, but is somehow not as good as the PAC 10.

Difficult to place weight on mnc's as they are so subjective. For a purpose like this you almost have to count each bcs bowl win equally, except the addition of the 5th bcs bowl has watered down the overall competition. Hell, last season, the Holiday Bowl, the CAP One, and the Cotton Bowl had more talented teams than the Orange Bowl

This scoring is very suspect. If a team wins 3 MNC in 5 years, there is no reason they should trail a team that hasn't had a single one let alone two teams. CFN may need to update their scoring.

The big ten has not produced a team that can hang with USC or the SEC champ in years. I would agree that USC has probably been pretty equal to the participants in the MNC. To say they were the best is very laughable.

LSU/OU vs USC/Mich - LSU had a much better year than USC if you compare the quality wins they had. OU and LSU would have had equal succes against Mich. LSU/OU?USC were on par, Mich was a few rungs lower.

USC/Penn vs UF/OU - Penn was probably the worst Big ten champ in years. Played nobody. beat nobody. Down year for the Big ten. And thats saying something. Agian USC was probably on par with UF and OU but their competition was not.

tOSU/TX vs UF/OU - tOSU was not as good as UF. Not even close. OU = TX.

You can't even make an arguement for it. The competition in the MNC is always greater than the other bowls. I agree some of the other participants may be as good, but their oppenent is usually shitty. Now if you could have matched TX vs USC last year, that would have been a good match up on par with the MNC.
