This has been updated after the final polls for the 2025 season.

OK, here's how this was calculated. I took each team's ranking in every year-end poll since the AP started in 1936. Once 2 polls were involved (the Coaches Poll started in 1950), I always used the higher ranking. Sliding scale points were awarded for every year that a team ended up ranked, and 10 points were deducted for each losing season. The scale was determined before seeing where teams ended up.

For each year since 1936, a team earns points based on these criteria:

NC (#1) in either poll = 100 points
02 -> 05 = 65, 55, 50, 45 points, respectively
06 -> 10 = 40, 37, 34, 32, 30 points
11 -> 20 = 28, 26, 24, 22, 20, 18, 16, 14, 12, 10 points
21 -> 25 = 08, 06, 04, 03, 02 points
non-ranked, but .500 or above = 0 points
losing record for the year = minus 10 points

Here are the all-time totals, updated after the 2025 final polls:

01. 3137 - Alabama
02. 3036 - Ohio State
03. 2818 - Oklahoma
04. 2651 - Notre Dame
05. 2287 - Michigan
06. 2123 - USC
07. 1937 - Texas
08. 1705 - Penn State
09. 1639 - Georgia (jumped Nebraska)
10. 1630 - Nebraska
11. 1555 - Tennessee
12. 1439 - LSU
13. 1379 - Florida State (-10 for losing record in 2025)
14. 1272 - Miami
15. 1175 - Florida (-10 for losing record in 2025)
16. 1113 - Auburn (-10 for losing record in 2025)
17. 1013 - Clemson
18. 0847 - Michigan State (-10 for losing record in 2025)
19. 0842 - UCLA (-10 for losing record in 2025)
20. 0744 - Washington
21. 0690 - Arkansas (-10 for losing record in 2025)
22. 0612 - Ole Miss
23. 0579 - Texas A&M
24. 0525 - Georgia Tech
25. 0489 - Wisconsin (-10 for losing record in 2025)
26. 0443 - Oregon
27. 0409 - Pittsburgh

Other schools: Iowa (377), Minnesota (341), Boise St (312), Colorado (285), Army (267), BYU (263), Syracuse (257), Stanford (215), Va Tech (198), West Va (156), Oklahoma St (37), Purdue (05), and Illinois (-77).

Since 2007, I have created separate ratings by adding National Championship credit for those earned prior to 1936, on a sliding scale based on 12-year periods.

1869-1899 - 10 points for each MNC (no top teams here, almost all Ivy League)
1900-1911 - 25 points for each MNC
1912-1923 - 50 points for each MNC
1924-1935 - 75 points for each MNC

Here are the all-time totals, updated with the pre-1936 MNC points:

01. 3412 - Alabama (MNCs in '25, '26, '34, 2/3 for '30 = 275)
02. 3036 - Ohio State
03. 2876 - Notre Dame (MNCs in '24, '29, '30 = 225)
04. 2818 - Oklahoma
05. 2462 - Michigan (MNCs in '01, '02, '23, '33 = 175)
06. 2323 - USC (MNCs in '31, '32, 2/3 for '28 = 200)
07. 1937 - Texas
08. 1705 - Penn State
09. 1639 - Georgia
10. 1630 - Nebraska
11. 1555 - Tennessee
12. 1439 - LSU
13. 1379 - Florida State
14. 1272 - Miami
15. 1175 - Florida
16. 1113 - Auburn
17. 1013 - Clemson
18. 0847 - Michigan State
19. 0842 - UCLA
20. 0744 - Washington
21. 0690 - Arkansas
22. 0650 - Georgia Tech (MNCs in '17, '28 = 125)
23. 0629 - Texas A&M (MNC in '19 = 50)
24. 0612 - Ole Miss
25. 0534 - Pittsburgh (MNCs in '10, '16, '18 = 125)
26. 0491 - Minnesota (MNCs in '34, '35 = 150)
27. 0489 - Wisconsin
28. 0443 - Oregon
29. 0377 - Iowa
30. 0367 - Army (MNCs in '14, '16 = 100)
31. 0312 - Boise State
32. 0290 - Stanford (MNC in ‘26 = 75)
33. 0285 - Colorado
34. 0263 - BYU
35. 0257 - Syracuse
36. 0198 - Virginia Tech

Note - USC and Bama received 50 points, rather than 75, for disputed titles in '28 and '30, respectively

Note - Illinois, with MNCs in '14, '23, and '27 fails to make the top 35.

Fuck a Hoosier.

Just saw it. ugh

Just another tidbit. Teaching pro once told me to watch the women golfers, not the men. Why, because the men hit such outrageously long shots, both drives and irons, while the women hit more comparable shots to we non-professional golfers. Used to be true, but now the women are banging their drivers much longer (than me certainly), and their short games are simply top notch, versus mine....anyway, even the HS players hit the ball further than I do. Watched the US Open qualifier at our course, and these guys were hitting driver, five iron to the opening par 5, and their tee box was almost touching the back shrubs. In case you're wondering, I hit driver, 3 wood, and from a 7 to an 8 into the green, depending on the wind. Believe the low qualifier shot a 63 from the tips....

Yeah, putting “former OSU commit” in your bio will get some teams who want to pay you more money

Or because he was/is an Ohio State dignitary. Can anyone say, with a straight face, that you, me or any of us, would receive the same if we were charged with same offense? Yeah, thought not.

Totally agree, great win for the Buckeyes. Also of note (being a numbers guy), the rebounding was tilted waay into the Buckeye column. Certainly need more OR, but will take keeping them from second effort points, gladly. PS, mean 'everybody', not just UCLA. Of concern, certainly are 'points from bench'. This is where Noel/Tilly came in, and no one has really stepped up. Chaisman wanted in (you could see it), but the bench scoring simply wasn't there. Don't remember Diebler substituting many minutes, though. Cupps got to be All-Ohio by scoring, yet don't see that from him. Anyway, not to be Negative Nelly, but there are always things to clean up. Hats off to Bruce for being Mr. Consistency. You don't know when, you don't know where, but you DO know it'll be there.....Go Bucks!

Texas Tech, JMU, Bama, UGA, aTm are the only teams in the CFP with QBs they recruited.
Unfortunately many of the NIL numbers aren't made public, so its hard to compare numbers unless the player, their agent or someone associated with them releases that info. Hence why I have yet to see how much Sayin is earning or negotiating, or how much JJ makes(the rumor is he's up to $7mil for next season). This is all a weird area we're in, in CFB. We know some salaries, but not all. So its kind of like a professional level, but still some numbers are shrouded in secrecy, my guess is because there isn't enough interest in those particular players.

Whatever JJ is making, its not enough.

He initially played soccer,[6] but played high school football at Southmoore High School as a placekicker and punter.

There's guaranteed to be more of these out there somewhere. FIND THEM

Back from IR and just had some key blocks on Buffalos TD drive

Good for him and probably a good reason to switch and maybe back to TE at Miami. Hope he tears the MAC up, except when they play BG

Juist sayin': S/I isn't sure that it was all about the money......

Koi Perich's decision to transfer to Oregon feels messy​

Perich will play in the Big Ten next season, but he will not be wearing maroon and gold.



Everyone in the great state of Minnesota seems to have an opinion on Koi Perich's decision to transfer to Oregon.

When Perich opted to stay home and play for his hometown Gophers in the 2024 high school recruiting class, he immediately became a hometown hero. According to 247Sports, he's the second-highest-ranked recruit to ever sign with Minnesota in the internet era. He turned down offers from top programs such as Ohio State, USC and Florida State to represent his home state. Roughly 25 months later, he decided to transfer to Oregon, so what happened?

Perich immediately lived up to his hype as a true freshman. He finished the 2024 season with 46 total tackles, five interceptions, and more than 500 yards as a punt and kick returner combined. He was named first-team All-Big Ten, and many viewed him as one of the top freshmen in the entire sport.

The hype grew even more before the 2025 season. He debuted a split practice jersey during spring ball, and Minnesota teased an offensive role for Perich as a sophomore. He became the talk of the town, and he was acting like it.

When asked in July if he grew up watching college football, he responded saying, "I would just skip through college if I could and just gone straight to the Vikings, but you've got to do your three years, and I am willing to do it."

He looked like a superstar, he was being covered like a superstar and he was acting like a superstar. But his production was simply not at a superstar level in 2025. He had 23 missed tackles, which was 17 more than his mark as a true freshman; he muffed a pivotal punt in the Cal game, and his offensive role resulted in just seven receptions for 89 yards, most of which came in the bowl game against New Mexico.

After an objectively disappointing 2025 season, he opted to hit the transfer portal and join Big Ten superpower Oregon, which was the type of program and opportunity he turned down as a high school recruit 24 months earlier.

It has been nearly two weeks since Perich initially revealed his plans to enter the transfer portal, and there has been no public comment from him, P.J. Fleck or the Gophers football team. It feels like a rather abrupt end to a career that once looked like it would be historic at the University of Minnesota.

Was his decision because of money? Did he want a chance to play in the College Football Playoff? Or did his time at Minnesota just reach a breaking point? We might never know the real answer, but that's the modern world of college athletics.

It shouldn't come as a huge surprise that Perich wanted to transfer to a program like Oregon. They play on a much bigger stage than a program like Minnesota, and they have substantially more to offer, financially. It also shouldn't come as a surprise that Gophers fans are angry; they have every right to be.
