I think it should be a revolving list. There are teams on that list that haven’t done anything in at least 10 years. I think recent success should matter if we’re going to talk about current blue blood football programs.

I just think the definition is different. Blue Blood isn't "current" it's all time. They don't rotate.
If OSU was terrible for a decade in a row they would still be a blue blood. Bama did nothing in between 1995 and 2007. Doesn't mean they weren't a blue blood during that entire time

Like I said, being a blue blood isn't really about being among the best programs as far as results go. It's just a term like OG. They are the OG's of college football, it's not going to change.
Just use a different term for those who have been better lately is all. Nobody is going to call Nebraska one of the top8 programs in the country, but they are still a blue blood.
