    20 years ago Michigan and UW would be in

    Clemson wouldn't

    Was UW decent in the late 90?

    Your eyes are as good as mine but yes they were

    Preseason #1 as late as 1997. Natty in 91. Uncrowned champs in 2000 after beating the vaunted Canes

    Point is Michigan was coming off of a 97 natty and Oregon had yet to win a Rose Bowl and pop off. It would have been USC and UW not Oregon

    And it would be Florida State and Miami not Clemson

    In 2000 Bama was struggling

    Things change all the time and a super league of 15 teams is retarded. Do the Power 64
    USC had been pretty bad (aside from the Keyshawn team) for a decade in 2000.

    Won 2 RBs in the 80s (and lost 2 more) and the 1 in the 90s. They weren't a juggernaut but they still pretty significant.

    They're always going to be a factor in this kind of stuff because of the TV market and history.

    True

    They had dominated the Pac most of the 80's but UW and UCLA won multiple league titles in the 90s. Bitchfork almost won the natty in 96

    That's why I say let the 64 in

    UCLA tied with WSU in 97 and finished #5 in the country. They were real good with McNown.

    How TF did I not remember/realize that the Pac lost 8 out of the 9 Rose Bowels between the UW wins in 91 and 2000?

    Thanks Northwestern!

    Stupid clickbait. I think keeping Florida State out was just to intentionally stir controversy. Other than pointless geography, not having Florida State and Miami but having Nebraska makes no sense. Oregon has nothing in common with these programs. Once you get past the 10 obvious choices, there are about 20 programs that can move up and down that are about the same.

    Did our boy Barry Alverez win three Rose Bowls? On Wisconsin @PurpleBaze @Mad_Son

    UW beat Wisconsin at home in 92 and Alveraz backed out of the 93 return game in Madison so he could build his program. Ended up winning the Rose Bowl that year

    csb: Friend of mine was a CA JuCo player in mid 90s and got some interest from LSU. And it was kinda "LSU? Huh, ok, cool."

    Yep he won in 93, 98 and 99, twice over UCLA and once over Ty. All one score games.

    Some of the largest TV markets excluded.

    Nebraska and Flyover markets included.

    15 teams...yeah.

    Even SEC, SEC people know this puts the sport in NGAF territory. But nothing like this will happen else it's around 50 teams.

    Masterful clickbait. I hope The Athletic goes under.

    You've got a lot of @haie in you're life.

    No good reason for Nebraska or Texas to be on that list. I saw another that had ucla, but in both no uw.

    A legendary DFI issue

    Early 2000s Wisconsin comes to Autzen. A travel agency sold seats that were already sold.

    These lists are usually garbage written by people who really don’t know college football, but it once again speaks to the power of perception and marketing.

    I like to talk designer watches with some of guysm on the @YellowSnow’s Emmanuelle Chriqui Fan Club Board. Rolex could start making absolute pieces of shit tomorrow and still coast on their reputation for years, if not decades, ‘cause they’re motherfucking Rolex.

    Washington used to be high end, but now we’re on the clearance rack...and we keep getting marked down.
