Ohio and Michigan each hit two before Texas or California got one.

I mean two schools. Ohio had Ohio State and Cincinnati, and Michigan had Michigan State and Michigan before Texas or California got a single team in. Then it was TCU of all teams to be the first from those two states combined.

NY has zero.  Texas has one now, which is surprising.  Illinois?  None.  Large states by pop.

Gotcha.

Florida and Miami don't look to be on the verge of anything, any time soon.

FSU is semi-quasi-sorta-back ...

UCF might make it, but probably not before the 12ing happens.

He was counting schools from the state with an appearance not total appearances by schools from the state.

And you wouldn't be happy or brag about it if Auburn did have one!

i feel like we should retcon one of those appearances to uab or troy or something. our board (joint system board) has screwed over uab football in past, we could show them some love. there, that's now 2! they get the 2014 one, though. can't have them taking a champ game appearance or worse a title. :)

The only other state with a comparable number of P5 programs to TX and CA is NC, and they are all basketball schools, so it's understandable that they haven't made it. Clemson is the FB school for the Carolinas, and it's in the other Carolina. So when NC State is your FB powerhouse, you aren't going to be in the playoff discussion anytime soon. 

Plus TX and CA are both recruiting hotbeds, while NC is merely a sliver of the "Mid-Atlantic" region, which is more of a recruiting Luke-warm bed.
