GAF index 5.0 says otherwise.

UGA is 22.5 points behind Bama and 2 points above LSU.

Thats hardly a “tier” above.

Is this graphic saying the tabulation started with 1970 season? Have never seen that year used as a starting point.

Nah. Michigan has been way more consistent over the years IMO

Michigan has spent 944 weeks ranked in the AP Poll (#2 all time) while USC is at just 831 (#6 all time). That's a very wide gap.

Final AP Poll results:

Top 25 finishes: Michigan 65, USC 52
Top 10 finishes: Michigan 41, USC 29
Top 5 finishes: USC 19, Michigan 18

It's true USC has more titles, but Michigan's consistency puts them ahead in my mind.

I think they are ignoring some of Auburn’s National Championships!

most AI clickbait bulslhti like the OP is garbage but I will give the person who put it together for the following:

-not having michican as high as many other media outlets. When there's only like a half dozen football programs for 20 years it's easy to rack up a high win count. They also have an astounding lack of national titles over the last 75 years
-having UGA in the top 10
-having UGA and LSU neck and neck, as they shoudl be, with UGA having a slight edge
-Tennessee dropping way down as they should

The ranking is fine but the tiers are annoying.

LSU has 3 of the last 25 national championships. aTm has 0 in 75+ years.

We are listed in the same “tier” as Aggie but a tier below UGA. Meanwhile we are 2pts behind UGA yet 15pts above aTm. This was put together with bias.

I agree UGA should be slightly higher, but do think they should be same tier.

Contrary to LSU Dumb Dumb Think, football did not start when Saban arrived at LSU and got things back on track for LSU and those coaches that followed.

From '58, LSU's first NC, until Saban arrived in 2001, LSU averaged 7 wins a season. LSU was literally a Mississippi State type team for 43 years.

I guess you are getting downvoted by those people who insist that OU would be at the level of Mississippi State if they had been in the SEC this whole time.

Funny thing is they might be right. Being in the Big 7/8 is the only reason that OU was able to integrate the team in 1956 instead of 1970. The fact that OU got a head start on integrating their program... and that was a huge part of why they were so good in the 1970s.

this reminds me that next year is stewart mandels kings and barons.that only comes out every 5 years.

Unless LSU makes the playoffs, i will be nervous if LSU remains one of the 13 kings.
