During the Rose Bowl Ryan McGee talked to 24 coaches, former coaches & players and her are the results
1. Texas - All the resources in the world but you'd better win, the big boosters think it's their team and you are constantly under the magnifying glass. A number of people said they would take the OU job ahead of UT because of this. These crazy expectations were also mentioned as a negative and and a good reason to avoid these "football" centered collages.
2. USC - Must lower expectations but still one of the best recruiting bases on the country.
3. Alabama - Very similar to Texas, huge expectations and an even more surly fan base if you don't win.
4. Ohio State - Considered the flagship program of the Midwest. Great recruiting base and much less intense.
5. FSU - They were considered #5 only because they are the current king of FL.
