Big Time Programs
SEC (Alabama, Georgia, Florida & LSU)
ACC (Clemson, Florida State & Miami)
Big 12 (Oklahoma & Texas)
Big Ten (Michigan, Ohio State & Penn State)
Pac-12 (Oregon & USC)
2nd Tier Big Time Programs
SEC (Arkansas, Ole Miss, Tennessee & Texas A&M)
ACC (Louisville)
Big 12 (Oklahoma State)
Big Ten (Michigan State & Wisconsin)
Pac-12 (Stanford, UCLA & Washington)
That's how I would see it for these conferences right now. The rest are more feel good stories for the programs if they find success.
Your understanding of Big Time programs and 2nd Tier programs is lacking.
Auburn has won a title and played for one. Georgia has made the CFP and won 1 game. And yet you do not list Auburn in either grouping. Arkansas, Ole Miss and Tennessee haven't won anything in over 15 years. Texas A&M is yet to win the SEC but I admit they are an improving program and relatively strong.
Miami hasn't won anything in over 15 years either and Florida State while deserving of their position has dropped off the charts the past few years.
Oregon has never won anything but they have played for a title. Washington probably deserves to be on par with Oregon because they did get a piece of a title some 20 plus years ago.
Penn State hasn't won a Big 10 title and hasn't made the CFP. They are strong but not Ohio State level. Ohio State no longer has peers in the Big 10.
All else aside, I believe Penn St won the B1G in 2016.
And has played in the Rose, Fiesta and Cotton bowls since then.
