Cool concept for the graph, but its not accurate.
For instance, Clemson has 115 Top 5 appearances now.... on this graph they appear to only have around 60 so its obviously out-dated.

Since this graph appears to be trying to rank programs by both Top 25 appearances as well as Top 5 appearances, weighted equally, I've put it into list form below to get an accurate ranking using those two criteria.
**I achieved this by taking each program's number of both Top 5 appearances as well as their Top 25 appearances and divided each by the program leader's numerical total for each of the criteria. This gives each program a percentile compared to the leader. Then average those two numbers together and it spits out the order.
1. Ohio State- .966
2. Oklahoma- .954
3. Alabama- .942

7. Nebraska- .738
