What football team has won the most NCAA championships?

'Bama "'Bama" plays in Division 1a, which does not crown a champion, because it does not have a format to do so. Even the NCAA Record Book, published annually, calls the team voted #1 at the end of each year a "poll" winner, not an NCAA champion. If you look at the bowls and polls records in the NCAA record book back to 1869 for Division 1a, the more accurate, and totally ridiculous, answer would likely be Princeton or Rutgers. Until the NCAA initiates a playoff format, it is anybodys opinion. And we know what those usually smell most like. To accurately answer the question, only teams from Division 1-aa, Division 2, and Division 3 could be considered.


Which college team has won the most national championships in college football?

Cincinnati bearcatsSince the question does not restrict the answer to a particular division, the answer is the Mount Union Purple Raiders, who have won 10 Division III National Championships.There are a couple of Division I-A teams who "have" more than 10 national championships, but few, if any, of them were actually "won", as is required by the parameters of this question. Prior to the inception of the BCS system, national championships were awarded by various polling groups (AP, UPI, Coaches, etc.). The only thing any team "won" in those years was a popularity contest vote. Nothing was won on the field of play. Nothing was won in a game. With the inception of the BCS in 1998, the two "best" teams in the country faced each other in a "national championship game", and the national champion was the team that won that game. 1998 was the first time a Division I-A national championship was "won" by anyone.There are those who say that even the BCS does not crown a "true" national champion, because they disagree with the way the "two best" teams are selected. I sympathize with this position, and agree that we will never have a "true" national champion in Division I-A until the NCAA adopts an 8-team or 16-team playoff. But, in the meantime, at least the national champions can claim that they won the national championship, because they did win it, in a game, on the field, even if some believe the team they beat wasn't the strongest possible opponent.But it makes no difference for the answer to this question, because the most national championships any Division I-A team has "won" under the BCS system is 2, which doesn't come anywhere near Mount Union's 10. By the way, the Division III national champion is, and always has been, determined by a playoff. So all 10 of Mount Union's championships would be considered as having been "won", by ANYONE'S standards.

Has Alabama ever beat Notre Dame?

Notre Dame Notre Dame Since there is no "official" national champion in FBS college football, the answer would depend upon the criteria you want to use. According to the schools themselves, Alabama claims 13 while Notre Dame claims 11. But each school uses different and subjective criteria to determine which seasons are "claimed" as championships. Most researchers would argue that Alabama's criteria is somewhat looser than ND's, and that if the same qualifications were applied to each school, ND would have at least 13 as well. If you count the total number of seasons where ANY recognized selector chose Alabama or Notre Dame as champion, then Notre Dame has 21 while Alabama has 17. If you only count seasons where the school finished #1 in either the AP or the UPI/Coaches poll, the two schools are tied with 8 titles each. If you only count BCS championships, Alabama leads 1-0.

Who is credited with winning the most NCAA football championships?

There are two ways to determine the all-time leader in championships.The first is counting all "national championship" awards from major selectors (meaning the AP, Coaches Poll, UP, BCS, FWAA, et cetera). Using that method, Princeton claims 28 national championships while Yale claims 27 (Michigan is third with 22 and Notre Dame is fourth with 21).The second recognized method is based upon the "poll era" (1936 to the present). The NCAA recognizes these claims. Alabama leads with nine, Notre Dame has eight, Oklahoma and USC each have seven.[Results for Alabama and Notre Dame are listed prior to the 2013 BCS National Championship Game]
