CFN names Sooners greatest program of all time

by

It was no surprise to us that the College Football News named Oklahoma the greatest college football program of all time.

The conclusion was based upon the Sooners’ consistent finish in Associated Press polls since 1936.

Since the AP poll is the only consistent ranking system from 1936 through today, CFN came up with a scoring system to compare and contrast how the programs finished over the decades. Every time a team finished No. 1 in the final poll, it got 25 points. The No. 2 team got 24 points, No. 3 got 23 points, and so on with the No. 25 team getting one point.  Through the decades, the AP ranked the top ten teams for a few years before going back to the top 20 rankings, and eventually, it went to the top 25 system it’s at now.
