Michigan is overrated as frick. The have 3 national titles since 1936 and have basically specialized over the years in getting their arse kicked in the Rose Bowl. They belong right where they are. No way they are over bama or USC

winning games means nothing if you can't win championships and get stomped over and over in the Rose Bowl

Yep, what a bunch of losers, only going 8-12 in probably the most prestigious bowl game of all time. THEY SUCK

Lil ol' Arkansas coming in at #19.
CollegeFootballDataWarehouse.com has us around 25th all time.
I believe we fit into the 20-25 slots and by most polls/mathematical calculations that's where end up.

Second, hmm what happened? Arkansas ranked ahead of Auburn? But weren't we told the other day that Arkansas isn't even a pimple on Auburn's arse
Had you started in SEC,you wouldn't be in top 30. Look at your bowl record.Thank God for the SWC and the private schools. Check your series record against the other schools that suround you.

They might be in danger of losing that title to Texas if Rich Rod doesn't get things headed in the right direction. Of course that might take four or five seasons, unless things really go wrong for UM.
1. Michigan: 872-297-38
2. Texas: 832-320-34
3. Notre Dame: 831-285-42
4. Nebraska: 827-337-41
5. Ohio State: 808-306-53
6. Penn State 801-349-43
7. Alabama: 799-316-43*
8. Oklahoma: 788-300-53
9. Tennessee: 776-327-55
10. USC: 765-303-54
*I'll keep it at 799 until the appeal is finalized one way or the other.
Interesting stat: Since 1936
1. Oklahoma 594-196-22
2. Texas 573-229-15
3. Alabama 571-229-24
4. Tennessee 566-224-28

Did NOT realize that we were the second winningest program in the NCAA of the modern era until this last season. Love the Vols.
Lack of Heisman winners killed Bama and UT in this. They count them in their bogus "formula".
And how the frick is miami and especially FSU ahead of UT/Penn St. FSU has had one good decade ever and they have less than 500 all time wins.

Can anyone tell me the number of NC's and Heisman's OU has. I'm just really surprised they made it over USC, Notre Dame, and Alabama. They are without a doubt top 5.
OU has seven AP/Coaches NCs, which is tied with Alabama and USC for the second-most to Notre Dame's 8.
OU also owns the longest winning streak in history, which likely will not be broken because parity has increased so much.

Woopiginaustin this is taking a historical composite which the bulk of our success was in the SWC. A couple differences now than in the SWC.
we could recruit a better caliber athlete out of TX b/c we were playing all our road games there and it was convient for parents.
The SWC only won about 35% of the time against the SEC. So that winning percent we had then of 70% of whatever it was will translate to about 40% now over the next 20 years.
Integration of college football.
Arkansas at best is a top 30 or so program.

Are you going by winning percentage since 1936? Otherwise Tennessee is at number four in the modern era, behind Oklahoma, Texas, and Alabama.

That actually may not hurt Bama at all. Sometimes highlighting the accomplishments of one player does not help a team reach the highest level. I don't think Alabama would have won as many team championships if it had had Heisman winners.

No one cares what you think, you use the same talking points for every argument and repeat them everytime you get bitch slapped

And you gather that I disagree with this from my post? I said they count them in their "formula". In other words they give teams lots of points for having them. Clearly this hurt UT and Bama in the ranking.
