Perennial Powers (Split Thread)

[Jaxbuck]

6th in all time win %

t5th in all time wins

t1st in win% since 1951

I'd say that qualifies us as a perrinial power.

BTW USC ended the 2001 season with a loss to Utah(pre Urban Myer) in the freakin Las Vegas Bowl so take that into consideration before annointing them a perinial power. They are a perinial media darling much like OU, Texas and Miami.

They are a perinial media darling much like OU, Texas and Miami.

I bet we're a media darling next year. We'll both start out highly ranked by many and will receive our share of time in the spotlight.

Just thought I throw out the last decade's winning % of some of the football programs in the country.

I forgot to mention that Marshall's record is from 1997 to 2004. Marshall joined Division IA in 1997.

Whereas the 1995 there is extremely arbitrary, I do think that this is a decent timeframe to look at... but on top of that this looks to be missing some teams you would think would be near the top... scUM for one...

Wingate, that 1995-2004 info is a little different that what I get from Stassen. I believe that your info includes January 1995 bowl games, which really are part of the 1994 season and shouldn't be included. Here's the top 20 in winning % for the past 10 football seasons:

note - Boise St. joined 1A in 1996, Marshall in 1997

So you don't think USC has 4-loss potential with all of the personnel and coaching changes the team will make? Especially if they lose Leinhart.

...

What about Chokelahoma?

Put the bong down...there's no way that USC loses 4-games with the talent and schedule they have unless the team bus gets flat tires on the way to the stadium four times. If you haven't noticed, USC is on the short list of more blue-chip recruits than any other team in college football. If Carroll and Chow stay at USC, I don't see them losing more than 2 games a year for a long time...and I'm dead serious on that.

As for Oklahoma, while they have choked in big games the last few years, keep in mind that they've played in three national title games in five years, and are the only team to make it to three BCS title games. Stoops is a great coach and recruiter, and has nearly as many big-name prospect in the country at least listing them as USC...sheesh, the guy is 60-7 over those five years.

Now, as for "perennial", keep in mind that both USC and Oklahoma were mediocre at best in the 1990s:

USC: 68-49-4 (.579) 41st overall
Oklahoma: 62-50-3 (.552) 50th overall

This clearly shows the impact that Carroll and Stoops have made for their respective programs.

Whereas the 1995 there is extremely arbitrary, I do think that this is a decent timeframe to look at... but on top of that this looks to be missing some teams you would think would be near the top... scUM for one...

Look right below OSU....

Perennial Power

NC in the 50's,60's70's..and one game away from NCs in the 80's and 90's. Without a doubt tOSU is a perennial power. Woody's blow up in the Gator Bowl probably led to less NC's. Though Earle was OK if there would've been a more orderly transition of coaches tOSU might not have had the JC era.

NC in the 50's,60's70's..and one game away from NCs in the 80's and 90's.

We also had a NC in the 40s (1942...our first). However, we were no where near a national title in the 80s...we had at 3 losses every year in the 80s.

 

[BB73]

Mili,

For the "'80's", he must have meant that time we were 1 point away, on January 1, 1980. But of course that was the 1979 season. :)

My Bad

80 Rose Bowl would've been 79 NC. Im getting addled in my old age. Thanx for getting me straight.

Put the bong down...

It's a pipe!

there's no way that USC loses 4-games ... as long as Carroll and Chow...

Can they continue the QB carousel though? How long will Chow continue to help those QBs grow/learn? They did fine replacing their last Heisman winner, but you always have to worry about breaking in a new QB. IIRC, they're losing a lot of guys on defense, too. I'm not predicting four losses, but certainly they could face the same thing we did this year. It's not like we aren't CLOSE to the level of talent that USC had... I mean our #2 recruiting class was coming into their 3rd year and we had four losses. Difference: Reggie Bush.

About Oklahoma, I was just stating what we'd been doing in the 2000's and how it's not so far away from what they had done. I wasn't trying to tear these programs down or take away from what they have done, but simply trying to use OU's failure to take it to the house as a basis of comparison for the Bucks

USC is without a doubt the hottest program in CFB. I know I was unjustly hard on OU as well. I really should have prefaced the bashing of OU/USC with 'they are the two premiere college football programs in the nation, but...' oh well. Thanks Mili.

Chow has been developing offenses around QB talent for decades. Did anyone outside of USC ever hear of Leinart before last year?

As for a difference in talent level, the biggest difference wasn't Reggie Bush, but rather a combination of the offensive line (more the fault of Bollman's coaching than talent) and us having a starting QB with about 30 passes under his belt.

With Zwick, Smith, and Boeckman on the team, and with Schoenhoft and maybe another joining us this season, we're not lacking for QB talent...it instead revolves around our OL. If the OL plays like it did against Michigan and Oklahoma State, then we're going to be a tough to beat as anyone in the country, including USC, with the WR corps we have, along with a pair of (or hopefully more) good RBs.

I'm not familiar with the USC D enough to tell you I know the changes made throughout the year (Thomps, Stripes, Emper?) but they will be losing 5 seniors from the D. With their recruiting in the past few years, they should be fine especially if the offense is putting up 50 pts early on to give them time to grow.

Exactly!! It's the oldest axiom in football, yet at times we tend to forget it: control the line of scrimmage and you control the game.

I expect our OL next year to be better than what it was in the last two games this year. For one, continuity. Secondly, the new recruits coming in will really, really push the starters plus last years recruits as well. Cordle will need some time to work on pass protection, but he is already there for run blocking. As for Boone, I am very reluctant to say this, but IMO he is ever so slightly ahead of where Pace was coming out of HS. I saw Pace play his senior year and I have seen Boone more than once this year and to me what gives Boone the ever so slight edge is his footwork, especially when with his size he can eclipse the sun.

Next year will show that this year was a minor hiccup, something that can always happen to a perennial power.
