I think you need to go back and read what I wrote again. I never said that I thought they weren't a top 20 program. I said I don't know if I'd use the word consensus to describe the claim that they're a top 20 team. Now I would be more inclined to use the word consensus to describe them as a top 25 program. I used Bleacher Report because I was searching on my phone and it was the very first site to pop up when you type "top 20 college football programs of all time". While BR sucks when it comes to any real team related news because practically anyone can create an article on it, it did serve the purpose to show that not everyone (which includes fans) considers them a top 20 program.

If you want some other sites that have them outside of the top 20, here are a couple more:

I'd have to vote USCe

Until recently, no consistent success yet their fans are always there: ACC/independent/SEC

I do not consider Alabama or LSU a top 20 program. Now neither of those programs are consensus top 20 programs all time because I am a CFB fan and apparently my biased opinion means something.

Do you see how ludicrous that sounds?

The first link you provided has us at 22 . Think youre being a little nitpicky.

"A&M is a top 20 program"

"Nuh uh! I found one that ranked you 22"

But mainly I just thought it was hilarious that you would link a BR article and present it as evidence, especially when it comes to something subjective like this.
