These lists are entertaining but hardly accurate or objective once you get outside of the top 20 schools or so. Oregon is a new kid on the block so to speak so I'd put Syracuse ahead of them and Arkansas? Virginia Tech?? Arizona State??? Really? Cuse should be in the Top 25.

And why do you guys care so much about Rutgers lol? To be fair they have over 600 wins and I believe are right on par with Boston College with total victories and they are certainly ahead of Indy and Vanderbilt in the W department. Both BC and RU won only one shared Big East title and both came after Miami and VT bolted. As far as I'm concerned both BC and RU each had one shining moment in the regular season (the Flutie play and Louisville game respectively) and won a bunch of bowl games no one cares about. I know Rutty fans can be ass clowns and you guys have no love lost for BC either but for one to be ranked #44 and the other to be #80 shows how much perception trumps fact in college football. BC just happened to be the more competitive program during the information boom of the 90's and early 2000's when teams outside of the true blue bloods started getting more and more exposure nationally. That's why Oregon is ranked higher than the Orange when they really shouldn't be. If you want to go by "what have you done for me lately" then yes Oregon deserves that spot but then does Notre Dame deserve to be that high up?
