Notre Dame - 11 Alabama-12 (Year / Record) (1925 / 10-0-0) (1926 / 9-0-1) (1930 / 10-0-0) (1934 / 10-0-0) (1941 / 9-2-0) (1961 / 11-0-0) (1964 / 10-1-0) (1965 / 9-1-1) (1973 / 11-1-0) (1978 / 11-1-0) (1979 / 12-0-0) (1992 / 13-0-0) Wrong Alabama cannot claim 12 because they didn't win 12 NC. First of all Notre Dame won the 1979 national championship and all the other 6 Alabama claims to have belong to other teams. So in fact I only count 5 NC. Where do you get 12?

Notre Dame has 13 consensus nation titles, although they only claim 11. This is because ND only claims AP championships as national championships. In 1938 and 1953, the majority of the polls named them champions, although AP had them #2.

== == Princeton has won 24 consensus National Championships,: 1869, 1870, 1872, 1873, 1875, 1877, 1878, 1879, 1880, 1881, 1884, 1885, 1886, 1889, 1893, 1896, 1899, 1903, 1906, 1911, 1920, 1922, 1933, 1935

Obviously most of these were before the 1900's, which is also true of Yale's 19 consensus National Championships: 1874, 1876, 1877, 1880, 1881, 1882, 1883, 1884, 1886, 1887, 1888, 1891, 1892, 1894, 1900, 1905, 1906, 1907, 1909

Notre Dame has won 12 consensus National Championships: 1924, 1929, 1930, 1943, 1946, 1947, 1949, 1953, 1966, 1973, 1977, 1988

Alabama may soon tie Notre Dame as they have 11 consensus National Championships: 1925, 1926, 1930, 1934, 1961, 1964, 1965, 1973, 1978, 1979, 1992

USC and Harvard each have 10 consensus National Championships

The NCAA has never officially recognized a national champion in Division 1A (now "FBS") College Football, and until the BCS was implemented in 1998, there was never any procedure in place to set up a so-called "national championship game." So the champion is always selected by various organizations and polls who often disagree.

The school with the most championship seasons awarded by ANY selector is Princeton with 26. But all of these were prior to the establishment of the AP poll and the Coaches (UPI/USA Today) poll, which are generally regarded as the two most reliable selectors. Presently, Notre Dame and Alabama are tied, each with eight seasons where they finished ranked #1 in one or both polls.

Among schools that are presently playing D1-FBS football, Alabama claims 13 titles, while Michigan, USC and Notre Dame each claim 11. But each school uses their own subjective criteria in determining whether or not to "claim" a national championship. For example, if Notre Dame used the same criteria as Alabama, they would have at least 13 championships, and possibly many more.

If your question is intended to include lower divisions of college football, where an "official" champion is selected via playoffs, the answer would be The Mount Union Purple Raiders in Division III, with 10 titles.
