You must of been watching football for 45 mins as you failed to mention Tennessee. Since the BCS era the SEC has more national titles than any other conference. They also have more schools that has won a national title than any other conference.

The last time Michigan won more than a half championship was during the Truman administration. Congrats

17 years ago I was 17. The only Big 10 team that’s been consistently elite in my life is OSU.

Blue bloods that consistently get their arse kicked by the SEC. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

Why would Notre Dame join the B1G? They are already a full voting member of the ACC.

Well, to be fair (unless my memory is off), they voted to join the CSA, but Lincoln sent the military in to arrest the governor and legislature.

Weird how all three of our bluebloods, as well as FOUR of our “other” teams, have a national title in the BCS + CFP era. That’s almost half the conference. How many do yours have?

If LSU is not a blue blood and Nebraska is, I dont known who would want to be one. But they are and your definition of a bkue blood is outdated.

New Rule: In order to keep your status as a "blueblood", you must be able to win the nattie at minimum once every 20 years. After 20 seasons, your status is reduced from "blueblood" to "has been".

I don’t consider NEBRASKA a blue blood.

However , “ blueblood “ is a historical thing not a currently relevant thing.

You can’t become one. That doesn’t mean you can’t be the most relevant or powerful program at a given time.

Meechigan hasn't won a title since 1948, they're consistently good, and have money and lots of fans but their ceiling is below ohio st, penn state, clem, Miami fsu, usc, Texas, Oklahoma, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, lsu, 8&4, Alabama and auburn. Tough to call that elite

Now that the B1G will have USC and UCLA, the national championship count (AP, UPI/BCS/CFP) going into 2022 is:

Southern Cal - 7
Ohio State - 6
Nebraska - 5
Minnesota - 4
Penn State - 2
Michigan State - 2
Michigan - 2
Maryland - 1
UCLA - 1

B1G Football NC total - 30

SEC:

Alabama - 13
Oklahoma - 7
Texas - 4
LSU - 4
Florida - 3
Tennessee - 2
Georgia - 2
Auburn - 1
Texas A&M - 1

SEC Football NC total: 37

Wishful thinking that Notre Dame is B1G bound in football. You can’t even remotely claim them unless there is a tentative agreement that they are joining.

By blue blood I am assuming you are referring to programs that won some shite in the past.

It is a designation meant to assuage the current ineptitude.
