Cumulative AP Rankings

[Juniper_Run]

For those who aren't familiar with this annual post, I keep a spreadsheet of AP final rankings and give every team points based on a simple system of 25 for a first place finish, 24 for second, all the way down to 1 point for a 25th place finish. It's interesting to see the rise and fall of programs over time. Here's how all the teams compare to each other over different time periods:

Thanks for putting this together. It's obvious that ND is one of the premier programs in the country, even though some posters here refuse to admit it.

Kind of cool to see the steady increase/progress in the reputation of the program (as per the AP voters) over the last 25 years.

Those same posters are just craving attention.

Those same posters are just craving attention.

"Anybody who doesn't agree or conform to my opinion isn't expressing a genuine point of view but they are trolls craving attention."

Imagine how insufferable it must be living with that degree of cynicism for other human beings

Changing the lens still can't hide the fact there has been no National title for ND since 1988.
