re: College Football Blue Bloods: Ranking The 25 Best Football Schools

They don't even know what blue blood means.

There are 8 blue blood teams. It does not mean they are among the most elite in the nation, it means they are the teams that were consistently good in the period of time when college football got popular and have large fan bases that give them a general advantage when it comes to things like revenue, TV time, etc

That's a solid definition...

there aren't "new" blue bloods. LSU and Oregon (for example) aren't now blue bloods because both have been good the past 20 years.
