Historically for damn sure ND is probably #1. But it's been 30 years (!) since they won a title and you have to go back 41 years to get them another one. The Rust Belt ain't what it used to be. Neither is ND.
Again, I evaluate tiers in "what caliber of coach does it take to win here" and it takes a better coach to win at ND than it does at SC.

What was the last Tier II program to win a national championship without an elite, generational QB?
LSU.
LSU has to be pretty damn close to tier 1, I know they're in Mandel's "Kings" tier. 3 NC's, 5 unclaimed NC's, a Heisman winner, 25 bowel wins. If they're not tier 1 they're certainly not looking up at anyone in tier 2.
So, LSU is not in any fucking way, shape, or form a Tier I.
I’m so fucking sick of this shit.
LSU was shitty or middling for fucking 40 years before Saban.
They got a Natty with Saban and then a run-off Natty under Miles and haven’t done anything since. Before that they won the fucking SEC like twice in 30 years.
THEY ARE NOT TIER I.
Are they at the top of a second tier team? Sure.
Fucking morons out here are saying fucking Clemson and LSU are a tier I because that’s what’s happened recently. There is such a fucking moronic recency bias in people it’s stupid.
FROM 1960 TO 2000 LSU won the SEC 4 times.
A team wins its conference FOUR TIMES in FORTY YEARS and you idiots say they are tier one?!?
Alabama won the SEC 15 times in the same span. Jesus fucking Christ.
It’s fucking embrarrasing.
You know what they have? What Clemson has? What Auburn and UGA have? Good brands.
Don’t confuse a good brand with being Tier I.
Until Saban showed up LSU had one Natty.
In 1958. All their unclaimed Natties are prior to 1965 (and they have an irrelevant one in 2011).
If we’d have hired Saban for fucking 4 years we would have a better history than fucking LSU.
Fuck LSU. They are 13th in winning % all time among P5 programs and we are 17th.
Jesus fucking Christ.
UW is top tier 2 program like LSU, but unlike LSU UW pisses away less talent
Here's mine:
1A (5)
USC, Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama, Ohio State,
1B (6 - 11 total in Tier 1) Penn State, Florida State, Florida, Miami, Michigan, Notre Dame
2A (5)
LSU, Clemson, Nebraska, Auburn, Georgia
2B (7)
UW, UCLA, Wisconsin, Tennessee, TAMU, Michigan State, Virginia Tech
From there NOC so I'm just going to list Pac12 and SEC schools
3A
Oregon, Stanford
3B Arkansas, Ole Miss, South Carolina, TOO HIGH, Arizona State, Arizona, Missouri
This is fucking filled with recency bias. Michigan is the #1 winning team of all time. All time. KREIST.
Any list where Michigan and Notre Dame aren’t Tier 1A is a joke.
Wisconsin and Tennessee in the same tier?!? Are you joking?
Clemson is not in any tier above us, EVER.
God, were you born two weeks ago?
Fucking HELL.
We've played more games than anybody and have more wins 100 years ago, therefore we're tier 1a!
Fuck. Michigan is lucky to be Tier 1. They have a losing record in bowel games. They have fewer bowel wins than all the 1a schools.
Of course there's recency bias. It's based on what caliber of a coach does it take to win at the school now. Situations change. Demographics change. Emphases change. This ain't the same world it was in 1988.
The Four Horseman ain't walking through that door.
No fucking way is Nebraska 1a anymore. Otherwise agree.
Lol fucking Jesus.
Why are people so fucking recency biased?
Nebraska has been just as good in the past 15 years as Bama was from 93-07.
Christ man. They are Tier 1A. They dominated the 90s.
They hired Solich and then fucked around with Callahan, Pellini and their Mike Price, Mike Riley. They had 80k at their spring game man.
If Saban went to Neb they’d be doing what Bama is doing.
Don’t forget Bama hired: Mike DuBose, Dennis Franchione (who got hired AWAY by A&M because people said it was a better job “now”), Mike FUCKING PRICE, and Mike Shula.
If Saban had gone ANYWHERE they would be above what they should be. He is easily the best HC since Bear Bryant.
Remember when people thought USC was completely unbeatable under Carroll?
Nebraska may be toward the bottom but of tier 1, but they’re not fucking Penn State.
Pitt is a tier 2 team that has dropped because interest in their program has died locally. Pitt won a Natty when I was a kid and had tons of great players, but made dumb decisions about conference affiliations and committed suicide.
When's the cutoff? When does a prolonged period of shit get you sent down a level? Is it local interest?
PSU went undefeated in 1994 and lost their voted natty to Nebraska. Nebraska's last natty was 1997. Nebraska hasn't won their conference since 1999; they trolled the Ducks in 2001 with getting in to the BCS natty game, but no conference titles in that time. Penn State has at least 2 where they lost to USC in the Rose plus their Fiesta win last year.
If the measurement is how much people care, Penn State covered up a child rapist because football! and still fills a 100K seat stadium. Nebraska's best is better than Penn State's best over history, but with their prolonged averageness for close to 20 years now I don't think they are far apart.
Michigan has 10 ancient national titles and one split one since color TV.
They haven't done shit in ages. They pretend to be bad ass, but once college football became popular across the whole nation Michigan became second tier and have stayed there.
Pages and pages and pages of Dad and Dad fighting. It's like I'm a little kid again. I just want everyone to get along for once and take me to fucking Disney World ok?!?!?

The point about PSU is a good one. F it, put them in it.
We had better average attendance during @Owen12 than Stanford or Oregon did during their best years EVER.
Does any of this matter with Browning at the helm?
Feel like elite QB talent is a must, to create a scenario that has the Dawgs competing for a National Championship.
THE WHOLE POONT OF THIS THREAD IS THAT WE CAN HAVE DOMINANT TEAMS. WE HAVE HAD THEM. WE CAN AGAIN.
IF YOU MAKE EXCUSES AS TO WHY WE CAN'T: YOU ARE THE FUCKING PROBLEM AND FUCK YOU GO TO DAWGMAN.
Some us are banned on doogman. And equook. And on most other boreds. HH is the only place we can cum to make excuses as to why UW can't have a dominant team again.
I like how USC is allegedly a top tier program that belongs alongside the likes of Bama but they haven't made the playoffs and haven't done jack shit for a decade and a half now. They are just another PAC 12 team that got lucky with a great coach, like Oregon did. If they're so fucking great and SO FUCKING BETTER than everyone else, why aren't they vying for a spot in the playoffs every year, like Bama and other similar teams? Also, comparing UW to Clemson is ludicrous. Clemson was in the playoffs for 3 straight years, beat Bama for a natty and is light years ahead of UW in coaching, recruiting and in every other department.

Bama had one elite season between the early 80s and Saban's arrival for Christ sake. Until a few years ago UW had a way more recent Natty than Clempson. This shit is cyclical for all programs, except Oregon. That was a once in a century type deal. 55,000 seat stadiums don't win NTs. Case closed.

Holy shit
That's not all. You knew this was coming; here it is: no one gives a shit about USC's voted titles, or buys the horseshit about their alleged 2003 voted natty, except for USC fans and their UW bitches. You guessed it, the only USC title that matters is the one that they won on the field. The BCS title. It's no coincidence that they happened to have an elite head coach at the helm when they won it. You can argue with me about it all you want, but facts are facts. You can't argue with the evidence. Even the 'great' USC needs an elite head coach to go the distance. There is no substitute.

They have like 11 national titles in the color tv era. That's pretty elite.

First of all, it's a great video clip DDY posted.
Secondly, the thread features standard faggotry from obk & MossterFS.
Texas too high.

ND is at the top of 1B and really the only one in 1B with a good claim to 1A. The rest are lucky to be there.
