Stewart Mandel ranked teams by tiers last year. [URL='http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012/writers/stewart_mandel/07/11/kings-barons-knights-peasants-mailbag/index.html']Article[/URL]
 
Here is how I would do it.
 
Kings-Alabama, Florida, Florida State, LSU, Miami, Michigan, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas,  USC. Each of these teams have played for or won a title during the BCS era
 
Barons-Auburn, Clemson, Georgia, Penn State, Stanford, Tennessee, Texas A&M, South Carolina, UCLA, Virginia Tech,  West Virginia, Wisconsin.
 
Knights-Arizona State, Arkansas, Boise State, Boston College, BYU, Cal, Georgia Tech, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas State, Louisville, Maryland, Michigan State, Missouri, North Carolina, N.C. State, Oklahoma State, Ole Miss, Oregon State, Pittsburgh, Purdue, Stanford, Syracuse, TCU, Texas Tech, Utah, Virginia, Washington.
 
Peasants-Arizona, Baylor, Cincinnati, Colorado, Connecticut, Duke, Minnesota, Indiana, Iowa State, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi State, Northwestern, Rutgers, Temple, South Florida, Wake Forest, Washington State and Vanderbilt.
 
Cannonfodder- the rest of D-1
 
This shows me the ACC has more potential than it is given credit for and can become a national player with just a couple of good years.
