Before 2000, you are correct. This program made the improvements, facilities, money, etc. to become a 10 win/year program.

Also, let's not forget that much of the history of college football consists of a time of 11 games or less per year, much fewer bowl games (invites actually meant something), and no conference title games. All of that equals up to those 7-9 wins per year being comparable to or greater than winning 10-11 games per year this day and age.

I'd like to see the other numbers of central tendency (median and mode) concerning wins as well. Would make for a better judgement.

Edit to add: By this logic, we should expect Nebraska to become a national power again soon. I'm sure some others could be expected to rise to the top too, maybe Army?
