This right here! Some teams are actual blue bloods and many others are just brands.

But....is Georgia a Blueblood??? ??


I care about that title about as much as I care about the price of Bulgarian stomach pumps in northern Bulgaria. We win games, your team doesn't. What else really matters?

So does the cowboys count as a “blue blood” in the NFL even though they’ve only won 4 playoff games in the last 25 years


Uh... yes? This is an absurd argument to make

Not silly when you’re consistently living in the past. If you consider yourself a “blue blood” it’s very simple win ball games be in the top 12 at the end of the year. Then maybe you can beat your chest out when calling your team a blue blood

It means you’ve built a brand and have attracted a very good national following. But it also says “consistent winning”

20 years Alabama was the "Nebraska" of the blue bloods and Nebraska was less than 10 years off their last dynasty.

Seems unlikely they'll return to that old glory, but in 2005 as an Alabama fan I was just happy when we weren't getting embarrassed off the field.

I saw last night that they haven't won against a ranked team since 2016. They're 0-26, that's unbelievable.

I like how most threads today are more than just pure trolling.

Except this one.

Couldn't beat Alabama though? Barely beat Florida, don't choke against Miss St or Texas

“Blue bloods” -- Only 3 teams in my opinion are blue bloods across the country. Ohio state, bama, Georgia. The ones that claim they’re blue bloods, their teams have been middle and below tier in the conference for 5-10 yrs now
Half the blood in your body is basically maroon.

Just sayin'
