Is there a D-I NCAA Football Program that has fallen farther than Miami?

FSU won it all in 2013, that was this decade. Nebraska is a good call.

hairysasquatch · 12-26-2019, 05:18 PM

I toyed with Tennesse but decided against it.

Nebraska is a potential contender, also.

Edit: thought you wrote PSU.

Tate Martell time for The U .

You obviously have no clue what you’re talking about but FSU has done all this in the past decade:

2010: 10-4, won Chick-fil-A Bowl
2011: 9-4, won Champs Sports Bowl
2012: 12-2, won ACC title and Orange Bowl
2013: 14-0, won ACC title and BCS National Championship Game
2014: 13-1, won ACC title and lost in the semifinals of the College Football Playoff (Rose Bowl)
2015: 10-3, lost Peach Bowl
2016: 10-3, won Orange Bowl
2017: 7-6, won Independence Bowl
2018: 5-7

Who would've thought I left out USC. It's actually really sad how their recruiting department has faltered. They allowed players that've grown up USC fans sign with other colleges. Arguably the best Pro Style QB, Best dual threat QB and the best linebacker in the country went elsewhere. That wont change with or without their current coach.

Jom619 · 12-26-2019, 05:18 PM

Nebraska used to like Alabama is now bigger faster and stronger. Now Nebraska is soft.

It feels like texas has been almosy tueninng the corner forever. Always over ranked, and then gone.
Im a big USC fan and they have fallen hard, which i dont get. Its a great school in a great location with plenty of history, and yet cant get anything going. Its mind boggling, especially with how bad the pac12 has been. Isc should be crushing it.

Good calls here.

FSU is the most recent to win a National Championship in 2013, but they are a complete mess with their coaching situations and on the field performances since Fisher.

Texas has been awful since 2009, but they do have the #9 recruiting class for 2020 after having the #3 the last two season, so maybe that will be the turnaround? I doubt it, but that has to give the fanbase some hope I'd imagine.

Miami has had some solid recruiting classes as well, including 17th for 2020, but they seem so far away from their last National Championship and they don't seem to be getting any closer.

USC actually had a nice 2016 and 2017 campaign, but their recruiting has really dropped off. They are 78th for the 2020 season, which has to be their lowest class in the internet era.

USC won their division, won 11 games and played in the Cotton Bowl in 2018. Miami won their division, won 10 games and played in the Orange Bowl in 2017. Florida State won 10 games and played in the Orange Bowl in 2016. Texas won 10 games and played in the Sugar Bowl in 2018. I don't see how any of those programs are train wrecks.

Nebraska last won 10 games in 2012, the only time in their 10 years in the Big 10 they have reached that number. Since playing in the Rose Bowl in 2001, their best bowls has been the Capitol One Bowl twice and the Cotton Bowl in 2006 when it wasn't a BCS game and for the best Big 12 team not to make a BCS game. From 1963-2001 they played in a top 4/5 Bowl Game 30 times. There is no program that has fallen on hard times like the Cornhuskers.

As a person who lived through the publicity that The U enjoyed during the late 80s and early 90s, I think only Nebraska currently comes close to matching the collapse we are witnessing. Maybe Tennessee to an extent. The ESPN 30 FOR 30 on The U will give you youngsters a taste.

Um.......Texas played in the BigXII championship and then beat Georgia in the Sugar Bowl just last season.

They aren't CFP "back," but if you're comparing them to Miami, you're doing it wrong.

Oh...

And Bowling Green has a better recruiting class this year than USC

That’s awesome
