Nebraska was one of the most dominant teams in history when they were on top
They will be again just not sure when.

Lol @ tech being anywhere near this list 
Btw, nobody REALLY gives a shite about pre-WW2 football. Barely even the same sport.
Wally Butts was the 1940s Steve Spurrier but you don't hear UGA fans bring him up ever.

When football is 100% an eSport played via video games because real football has too much liability associated with it.
In that era having a state full of white kids won't be a hindrance, it will be an advantage.

Not that I think your list couldn't do well with a lot more tweaking, but the obvious omission, even though they're not really top 6, would be Penn State covering the Northeast.

I have been to South Bend and I have been to the east coast. It is pretty obvious how big a deal the Irish are in cities like Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and the like.

Texas is the most historically overrated school in the country and it's not close. They have the same amount of championships as we have, and we are NOT blue blood, not even close. They're the Carson Palmer of teams. People always throw them up there with the rest because ... reasons... not due to anything they've actually earned.
And if you look at what they have to work with it's hard to say they're not one of the most underachieving schools out there.

Was stating Alabama and their rivals Tennessee and Auburn. When looking at 6 in the entire USA, being #2 in Alabama is an automatic disqualifier for the Tigers

Last UGA MNC was with Walker, last GT MNC was in the 90's.
Now I must go take a shower for having to point that out to you.
