Complate garbage.So if Miami goes on to win 4 NC's in the next 15 years and has a total of 9,they won't be
a "blue blood"?

Lots of powerhouses pre WWII that will never sniff another NC (Minnesota,Pittsburgh,Army,Harvard,Princeton ) It was 75+ years ago and those titles are getting less significant over the course of time.

No and the culture at the U will never be one that goes along with a blue blood program.

When we say blue blood, think "royalty". Won't mean they don't already even have a great program. They're just not royalty when it comes to college football. Sounds snobbish but that's just the way it is.

I like Miami but let's be honest, they're trashy.

Georgia and Tennessee at their very best have always been Alabama-lite.

You can't just be a powerhouse from back then, you also have to have some modern credentials. As such, those Northeast teams you mentioned, don't qualify. They are fine universities but just not blueblood football programs.
