Blue blood is just a term for programs that are has beens.

3 straight years with a winning record/being bowl eligible, for some of us

One can only dream of such.

We need a different standard to start with. How about just one year with such?

 

[Deep Creek]

And it seems like the majority so far think you cannot join the Blue Bloods but you can lose your status

Or gain it back.

It's not hate at all. We realize that Georgia Tech has a more impressive trophy case than Oregon. Colorado does too.

Blue bloods don’t play “dress up”.

No. The term Blue Blood means aristocrat, established, been around a long time, i.e "old money". The ones you mentioned certainly do qualify for that, with teams like LSU, Nebraska, and Tennessee being just outside.

Teams like Miami, FSU, Clemson, and possibly Oregon (if they ever manage to win something) would be considered "new money".

To put it in a real world comparison.

Rockefellers or Gettys = Old Money
Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos = New Money

Thank you. I normally have to come in here and explain this. He meant "Elite" not "Blue Blood."
