If so, there is no way you leave Nebraska off the Blue Blood list.

I’d add nu to the list. But in previous discussions, people were adamant against it.
but even so, why would RECENCY BIAS be the reason for me to keep them off the list if the rest of my list is old fart teams?

Why does your post say "refract" yet when I quote it, it says recency? Bug in the system.

Yeah, it’s quoting pre-edit copy lately. Weird.

If the Ivy League had not choosen the path of education first, they would be Blue Bloods ... They have not been too relevant for years nationwide football. Minnesota ... The Ivy League put education first.

Gonna say, no doubt we have had it a little worse than Texas has (barely), but both programs are ass right now and Nebraska doesn't have NEARLY the advantage that Texas has. If Nebraska isn't on the list, I don't see how Texas is.

For perspective... since 2010
Texas 83-67
Nebraska 81-68

I think you need to learn to read. My viewpoint is the opposite of recency bias.

If your viewpoint is the opposite of recency bias, then there is no way that Clemson or Auburn make the list. Hell, Penn St and Tennessee probably wouldn't make it.

Ummmm what?
 
Texas only has 3 natties. If the OP's list is true, they've gotta be the least blue of the blue bloods. LSU has 3 natties since 2003 and one back in the 50's to go with em.

Well what categories are you going by to make your determination. Considering that.... (according to winsipedia)

Auburn is 19th in win %, 26th in national titles, 55th in conference titles, 15th in #of bowl games, 13th in wins, 22nd in all americans, 23rd in weeks at #1.

Clemson is in that same boat.... 21st in win %, 19th in national titles, 14th in wins, 22nd (tied) in all americans, 38th in heismans, 15th in weeks #1.

How would either of them be in the top 10? Even Winsipedia has them both at 16th and 15th respectively. And each have an average rank of 21 and 20 on winsipedia via all of their categories, respectively as well.

Personally, I don't consider draft picks or 1st rnd picks to matter as it isn't an actual reflection on the program, but is determined by the needs of the NFL. I don't think high or lower scores in that regard hurt, but I don't think it helps either. I also don't think Bowl Record should be considered either.

Then you have to consider Michigan. A team that claims half of their national titles before passing was even allowed. Last outright title was 1948. Michigan hangs on the fact of leading in wins though not all of those wins are equal. A long time ago, I broke down how they had played over 100 more lower tiered programs (meaning considered G5 or FCS or lower nowadays) than most other blue bloods.
