Football - Street & Smith ranks all-time programs

Interesting find from a discussion board about a Street & Smith ranking of the best football programs of all-time.:


Street & Smith's graded each program's football history - reaching back to the game's origins in the 1860s - on a combination of national championships, undefeated seasons, major bowl wins and appearances, conference championships, all-time winning percentage, graduation rate, All-Americans, Heisman Trophy winners, No. 1 draft picks, NCAA infractions, and even mascot ferocity.
