In Division 1a, Michigan. * 1 Michigan Wolverines 860 * 2 Notre Dame Fightin' Irish 821 * 3 Texas Longhorns 810 * 4 Nebraska Cornhuskers 803 * 5 Ohio State Buckeyes 786 Source: NCAA.org (Look for record book) Some program records are inflated due to the fact that they played high school teams in their early years. NCAA does not count these victories. As of the start of the 2007 season, Michigan has won the most games of any Division 1A school with 860. Yale has won the most of any Division 1AA school with 839.
5 teams are tied with the most overtime football games. Missouri, Mississippi, North Carolina State, Pittsburgh and Texas A&M have all played in 11 overtime contests. I have done exhaustive research on the topic and my website is here: http://faculty.evansville.edu/pr7/overtime.htm
Rutgers and Princeton played the first ever game of American Football at the college level in the 1869, with Rutgers winning by a score of 6-4. College Football has changed quite a bit since then, with the addition of the PAT, the forward pass, and more. Logic would suggest that because of the long history, these two schools have played the most games.
Michigan 877 wins. Most all time.
at my school there are 12
Overtime was implemented in the 1974 season for regular season games. Before that there was no overtime to break a tie in a regular season game. Of course, playoff games have always had overtime.
In college football, yes. If the score is tied at the end of an overtime period, the game continues. Overtime rules in college football are set up so that there cannot be a tie game ... overtime periods will be played until one team is ahead at the end of an OT period. In the NFL, not in the regular season. If no team scores in the overtime period, the game ends and is declared a tie. Obviously, in the playoffs there can be a double overtime as those games must have a winner.
The streak stopped at 89 games (third longest in high school history) when they lost in overtime in the State 5A championship game.

Primetime games (games played after business working hours but before late-night hours (e.g. 11:00 p.m., but can be debatable) are televised by ESPN. The televised football games ESPN are on Monday nights starting at 8:00 p.m. Eastern, 5:00 p.m. Pacific, and the show is called "Monday Night Football". The show runs the nominal length of a regularly played football game, which is roughly 3 hours long. If the game plays into overtime, the overtime portion is also aired.
We use a Youth Sized football for middle school football in Indiana.
No.
In the 2009 season, there are 120 Division 1-A football schools, 117 Division 1-AA football schools, and 150 Division II football schools.There are more than 60 "1-A" games a week because not all of the games pit two 1-A schools against each other.As an example, the start of the 2009 season saw the University of Virginia, a 1-A football school, play William and Mary, a 1-AA football school. Temple, a 1-A football school, played Villanova, a 1-AA football school. Duke, a 1-A football school, played University of Richmond, a 1-AA football school.
