What are the most important programs in the history of college football?Its a thorny, fun, fascinating question that we posed to 12 of our writers. We asked them to rate every current FBS program on a scale of 1-10, based on each schools overall impact on the history of college football.The rankings below list the school, then their average score.?The top five finished with unanimous 10 scores, and we rounded up from 9.5 for those that just missed a perfect score.The end result? Eight schools qualify for what were calling blue bloods -- the royalty of the game.?BLUE BLOODS T1. Alabama Crimson Tide | 10The Tide own 11 national titles (including the most recent one). They play in the ever-competitive SEC, where they have won 25 conference titles, 12 more than the next closest team. Alabama also has more bowl wins (35) than any team in the country. T1. Notre Dame Fighting Irish | 10Its hard to argue with the highest all-time winning percentage in all of college football, which is the perch on which Notre Dame sits. At 892-313, the Irish have won more than 73 percent of their games. They have also won eight national championships and generated seven Heisman Trophy winners.T1. Ohio State Buckeyes | 10Ohio State also has seven Heisman Trophies, including the only two-time winner in running back Archie Griffin (1974, 1975). The Buckeyes have six titles to their names, half of which were won by Woody Hayes, who led the program for 28 seasons. The Buckeyes have won 35 Big Ten titles. T1. Oklahoma Sooners | 10The Sooners have won 72 percent of their games since taking the field in 1895, and theyve won 75 percent of their conference games. With seven national titles and 14 undefeated seasons, Bob Stoops program is a lock for blueblood status.T1. USC Trojans | 10The Trojans would be part of the seven-Heisman club were it not for Reggie Bushs vacated trophy. They have won seven national titles and boast 33 bowl wins, the No. 2 mark in the country behind Alabama. 6. Michigan Wolverines | 9.92The Wolverines fall short of their fellow blue bloods in national championships with only two. But while Notre Dame has the best winning percentage, Michigan has won more games overall by a margin of 33. Current coach Jim Harbaugh will try to widen the gap. 7. Texas Longhorns | 9.83The Longhorns have won four titles and are one of eight teams to have won 70 percent or more of their games all-time. Texas won or shared 25 conference championships during its time in the Southwest Conference but has only won three in the Big 12. 8. Nebraska Cornhuskers | 9.5Relatively speaking, Nebraska has enjoyed more recent success. The first of the Cornhuskers five national championships came in 1970. They went back to back in 1970-71 and again in 1994-95. Theyve also produced three Heisman winners including 2001s winner, quarterback Eric Crouch.EVERYONE ELSE 9. LSU Tigers | 9.33LSU is often a part of the national title conversation, but the Tigers have won only three, the most recent of which came from current coach Les Miles in 2007. Theyve also produced only one Heisman Trophy winner, Billy Cannon in 1959. 10. Penn State Nittany Lions | 9.17Penn State owns two titles but hasnt won one since 1986. The Nittany Lions still rank in the top 10 in winning percentage with an overall record of 856-382 (.685). Their lone Heisman Trophy belongs to running back John Cappelletti (1973). T11. Florida Gators | 9Floridas three national titles come from two big names in the coaching world with Steve Spurrier claiming its first crown in 1996 and Urban Meyer winning two during his six-year stint in Gainesville. Spurrier also won a Heisman Trophy for the Gators as did fellow quarterbacks Danny Wuerffel and Tim Tebow. The three signal-callers have statues that sit outside of Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. T11. Georgia Bulldogs | 9One of college footballs greatest running backs, Herschel Walker, calls Georgia his alma mater. Walker won the Heisman in 1982 for the schools second such trophy. Walker also helped the Dogs to their only national championship as a freshman in 1980. 13. Florida State Seminoles | 8.92Former coach Bobby Bowden broke through for Florida States first title in 1993. He won another in 1999 before handing the reins to current coach Jimbo Fisher, who won again in 2013. A trio of Seminoles quarterbacks have won Heismans with Charlie Ward (1993), Chris Weinke (2000) and Jameis Winston (2013) taking home the award. 14. Miami Hurricanes | 8.33Few 10-year runs rival the stretch that Miami enjoyed from the schools first title in 1983 to its fourth in 1991. Three different head coaches (Howard Schnellenberger, Jimmy Johnson and Dennis Erickson) led the Hurricanes during those years. The decade of dominance produced two Heisman Trophy winners: Vinny Testaverde in 1986 and Gino Torretta in 1992. 15. Tennessee Volunteers | 8.08Tennessee has won 13 SEC titles and two national championships, one under Bob Neyland (for whom the stadium is named) and one under Phillip Fulmer. Fulmers title-winning quarterback was not NFL great Peyton Manning, who was drafted No. 1 overall after the previous season. It was current USC offensive coordinator Tee Martin. The Vols are the first team on the list to not have a Heisman trophy winner. 16. Auburn Tigers | 8Auburn fans had to wait quite a while after Ralph Shug Jordan won the schools first title in 1957. Gene Chizik and a quarterback named Cam Newton brought home another in 2010. Newton also became the schools third Heisman winner, joining Bo Jackson (1985) and Pat Sullivan (1971). 17. Clemson Tigers | 7.83Clemson came within a game of doubling the schools championship trophy count. Coach Danny Ford and the Tigers went undefeated in 1981. The Tigers are also without a Heisman Trophy winner, something current quarterback?Deshaun Watson?could change. T18. Michigan State Spartans | 7.67Some great coaches, including Alabamas Nick Saban, have passed through East Lansing since Duffy Daugherty won the schools second title in 1965 but none have been able to pull off the feat. The Spartans appeared in the College Football Playoff last season, where they lost to Alabama. T18. UCLA Bruins | 7.67UCLA has one national title and one Heisman Trophy (quarterback Gary Beban), but both came before 1970. Former coach Terry Donahue won seven straight bowl games in the 1980s, and Jim Mora has the Bruins winning again as of late. 20. Texas A&M Aggies | 7.42Coach Homer Norton won the Aggies their first and only national championship in 1939. They have since produced two Heisman winners in running back John David Crow (1957) and quarterback Johnny Manziel (2012). T21. Oregon Ducks | 7.33Oregon is the first team on the list to never have claimed a national title. Quarterback Marcus Mariota brought the schools first Heisman to Eugene in 2014, the same year the Ducks fell to Ohio State in the first College Football Playoff final. Oregon was also the runner-up to Auburns title in 2010. T21. Stanford Cardinal | 7.33Stanford also lacks a national title, but the Cardinal have an impressive line of quarterback alumni including Jim Plunkett (who won the Heisman in 1970), John Elway and Andrew Luck. Current coach David Shaw has made three Rose Bowl appearances in the past four seasons, and the Cardinal have won two of them (2012 and 2015). 23. Washington Huskies | 7.17Washingtons lone title came in 1991 under the direction of coach Don James. The Huskies have also won seven Rose Bowls, the most recent of which came in 2001 when coach Rick Neuheisel and quarterback Marques Tuiasosopo took down Drew Brees Purdue team. 24. Wisconsin Badgers | 6.92Wisconsins strong tradition of running the football is borne out in its two Heisman-winning backs: Ron Dayne in 1999 and Alan Ameche in 1954. The Badgers have won 14 Big Ten titles and won three Rose Bowls. 25. Arkansas Razorbacks | 6.42Arkansas is without a Heisman Trophy or a national championship. The Razorbacks have never won an SEC conference title and won 13 conference crowns while a member of the Southwest Conference.Voters for the blue-bloods project: Andrea Adelson, Edward Aschoff, Brian Bennett, Heather Dinich, Travis Haney, Chris Low, Ivan Maisel, Ryan McGee, Ted Miller, Adam Rittenberg, Mark Schlabach and Mitch ShermanHydro Flask Cena .C. -- Kemba Walker and the Charlotte Bobcats got off to a fast start, and the Sacramento Kings were never quite able to catch up.

With Parker having a quiet game for once, Nicolas Batum and Boris Diaw provided the scoring as France won its first major basketball title by beating Lithuania 80-66 on Sunday. It was a victory that ended a decade of frustration for Parker and a talented French generation, which lost the final against Spain two years ago and took bronze in 2005.FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Josh McDaniels is going to be some NFL teams head coach next year. And when this happens, if your first thought is something about what a disaster he was as a head coach in Denver, youll want to also think back to this September and whats going on in New England.McDaniels is the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for a Patriots team that is now 2-0 without Tom Brady or Rob Gronkowski. During the first half of Sundays game, as Brady backup Jimmy Garoppolo was strafing the Miami Dolphins for 234 yards and three touchdowns on 18-of-27 passing, disaster struck again. Garoppolo went down hard on his throwing shoulder on a hit by Kiko Alonso, and into the game came rookie quarterback Jacoby Brissett.This development was met in the Patriots offensive huddle with a collective shrug.I was more so worried if (Garoppolo) was going to be OK or not, running back LeGarrette Blount said. As far as how we were going to do as an offense, I wasnt worried about that.This is because the Patriots players know theres a plan, and they believe it will work. They play for a coaching staff that knows how to solve problems. A collective panic may have been sweeping through the stadium and the fan base, but the sight of Brissett in the huddle didnt shake up the players. They were thinking about the game plan, and how to execute it.Our coaching staff does a great job of preparing this team, receiver/special teamer Matthew Slater said. Ive seen it time and time again over the years.So has the rest of the league, which is why McDaniels will be the hot head-coaching candidate once this season ends. The mess he made in Denver as a 33-year-old first-time head coach with personnel control tends to obscure the fact that hes one of the sharpest offensive coaching minds in a league whose general managers all seem to be looking for exactly that every January.Oddly, the presence of Brady works against the public perception of McDaniels as well, because its fair to wonder how much coaching a player like Brady really even needs.But McDaniels has been the Patriots quarterbacks coach for 10 of Bradys 17 NFL seasons, so its fair to assume he has had some influence. Regardless, the design and the agility of the offensive game plans the Patriots have used in their two victories so far this season bear the mark off brilliance.dddddddddddd.Short stuff, quick routes, get your quick little receivers open and get the ball in their hands. Same kind of stuff they do with Brady, sure, but more important with inexperienced types like Garoppolo and Brissett. Adjusting week to week -- keeping Martellus Bennett in to block almost exclusively last week in Arizona because of the way they rush the passer, then unleashing him as a five-catch, 114-yard receiving threat this week against Miami. Adjusting at the half to feed Blount and eat up the clock with a big lead.No matter whos in there at quarterback for them, they have a great game plan, Dolphins safety Michael Thomas said. It was a whole different game once Garoppolo went out, but kudos to them.We knew they would get more basic, but they still made plays, Dolphins safety Isa Abdul-Quddus said. We tried to stop the run, and they just made plays.What McDaniels is doing with this offense, under these circumstances, will be noticed. There are former Patriots executives in charge of teams like the Lions and Titans, who could be looking for head coaches after this season. These men know McDaniels and the way he works, and theyre not the only ones who view him as an excellent coach who (still only 40!) deserves another chance, just like the coach he works for once needed another chance.Fifty-four points and a 2-0 record with their second- and third-string quarterbacks and without their all-universe tight end? Does anyone think theyre not going to have something surprising in store for Houston on Thursday, even with only three days to get ready? Dont you think Texans coach Bill OBrien, himself a former Patriots offensive coordinator, is bracing for everything McDaniels has got -- Jacoby Brissett or no?The team that prepares the best will usually go out and win that Thursday game, Patriots receiver Julian Edelman said.He didnt say his team would be the one that prepares the best. He didnt have to. Everybody here knows it, and most people around the league know it too. So when McDaniels spends the Patriots playoff bye week going on job interviews in January, think about whats going on here right now, and you wont have any trouble figuring out why. ' ' '
