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.

1901 college football national championship?
In college football there are no official national champions at the highest (FBS) level. However, there are "mythical national champions," which are based on consensus opinion. Michigan is the current consensus choice for champion of 1901, but Harvard and Yale also claim that they are national champions for that year. Harvard was the consensus choice of writers at that time, and if there had been an AP poll in 1901, they probably would have been a unanimous #1. Yale bases their claim on the fact that historian Parke Davis retroactively selected them as champion in 1933. But Harvard was 12-0, Yale was 11-1-1, and Harvard beat Yale 22-0. Michigan was first crowned the 1901 champion 40 years after the fact by the Helms Foundation. Most people today view Michigan as the champion. Which is like people 100 years from now considering Boise State the 2009 champion rather than Alabama.
