    isl, was this from any specific website or did you work the numbers? I was looking around and Sporting News had a different take with different numbers. I don't think they removed vacated games but their numbers are still quite different.

    Interesting notes....of the top 3, all won a BCS championship, but they also combined for a 3-6 record in the BCS championship, including a 0-5 mark against SEC schools. Alabama is 74-15 under Saban, 68-48 before he arrived. Stanford is 53-28 since 2007, meaning the program was a dismal 51-61 before Jim Harbaugh and David Shaw.

    "Best of the BCS era" means they go back to 1998, when the BCS first started. LSU obviously had a couple of lean years in 98 and 99.

    I compiled a list since the start of the century.

    Other differences may be whether they included bowl games or not.

    At this point, I cannot remember how I compiled this list (as in what source of info and what tinkering I needed to do to get the list completed).
