re: What is considered an elite season for a college football program?

Elite being designated for a single season doesn't strike me as the best way to gauge perception of what a fanbase believes their team should measure up to. In my opinion, the only elite seasons in recent memory are 09' Bama, 04' USCheat, and 00' Miami.
On the other hand, I thoroughly believe that a program can be elite without accomplishing an elite season.

You can view anything that is being compared and is more than a few as elite.
You can easily view a single season, with 124 teams and choose those that had an elite season.
The definition of elite is not one, it is a small few or small group.
I basically want to know what teams have to do, not only be their own standards, but by a general consensus to have their season considered elite in the context of that single year.
If we define elite by winning your conference, finishing in the top ten and winning a BCS game, then those teams, this year are:
Bama
Stanford
Florida State
Simple as that.
I just want to know what type of parameters you can use. A top ten finish is one thing, but winning that conference title or a BCS game is another thing.
