Sustained success in college football is an elusive goal that only the sport’s select few perennial powers reach. Even the greatest programs in the nation take steps backward every few years as they rebuild from roster and staff turnover. Some teams, though, like Alabama and Georgia, overcome the odds with their winning traditions and nearly unbeatable resources to stand among the elite programs on an annual basis.
Reaching the .500 mark and bowl eligibility are standards by which a large contingent of college football teams measure success. Other schools would consider hovering around that six-win threshold a disappointment. While every program has different benchmarks, winning remains the ultimate goal.
Finishing above .500 year after year is one of the many measures of consistency for the best programs in the sport. If a school’s floor is reaching bowl eligibility, there is a good chance that its ceiling is competing for national championships.
