Most Prestigious Football programs since 1980
Since I have absolutely nothing to do on this sunday evening other than watch the NFL. Decided I'd put together some stats to calculate to figure out what SB team has the most Prestigious program over the past 35 years, 1980-2015. I chose several categories and put a point total with it based on importance to program history, all based on my opinion. I chose the categories before I started calculating so to be as unbiased as possible. Due to time, I only used the programs who had a strong enough history to claim bragging rights in this debate. Totally for fun. Hope you enjoy ...
Categories: ..................... Points:
FBS National Titles .......... 10 (obvious zero for everyone)
FBS Conference Titles ...... 8
Bowl Wins ....................... 6
Bowl Appearances ........... 4
All-Time Winning % ......... 1
FCS/DII Titles .................. 5
FCS/DII Title Appearances .2
FCS/DII Conference Titles ..4
FCS Playoff Appearance .... 1
College FB Hall of Fame .... 1
NFL 1st Rd Picks ............... 2
Here are the results: (total points for category)

Thought the results could bring about some interesting conversation (or argument). Since I did this on my own, I could've missed some numbers. So if you find a mistake, please share and I'll update.
