This data is the same info we used to determine winning percentages, yet our emphasis has changed from highest win percentage to greatest number of wins. Michigan leads the way with 989 wins, followed by that team “Down South” (OSU 965) or as Harbaugh calls the Bucks … ‘Ohio’, he refuses to identify them as Ohio State … funny & annoying!
The usual suspects round out the top five, the Irish (ND), the Tide (Bama), & the Horns (TX). These three programs have won 2,837 games and Alabama (23) & ND (22) have won 45 National Championships (NCAA recognizes) between them! OU, the Huskers, UGA, SC, & The Volunteers complete our top ten list
The B-10 has the top 2 win total programs (Bucks & Wolves) and 3 more in the top 25 (#7 Nebraska, #12 Penn State, & #25 Wisconsin). That said, here comes the Southeastern Conference with a ‘whopping’ 8 teams (#4 Bama, #8 UGA, #10 TN, #11 LSU, #13 Auburn, 16 Texas A&M, #20 Florida, & #24 Arkansas) listed in the top 25!
The B-12 has 3 teams in the top 25, (#5 Texas, #6 Oklahoma & #15 West Virginia) The ACC, while not as highly ranked As the Southeastern or B-10, does have an impressive six (6) teams winning their way into the top 25 (# 14 Clemson, #17 Virginia Tech, #19 Pitt, #21 GT, #22 Syracuse, & #23 UNC. The PAC 12 has two (2) squads listed, #9 USC & #18 Washington
# 26 Navy is the highest ranked Group of 5 (G5) team. The Midshipmen have won 732 games 11 more then their arch-rival #29 Army @ 721 victories.
The Southeastern & B-10 conferences will increase their numbers in the 2024 season, the Southeastern Conferences will be adding Oklahoma & Texas, while the B-10 will be bringing Southern Cal into their ranks. These additions mean that nine (9) of the ten (10) highest win total teams play in 2 conferences and oh yeah, by the way, the next three highest (#11 LSU, #12 Penn State, & #13 Auburn) are also members of the SEC or B-10!
Notre Dame is (will be in 2024) the only team in the top 13 that is not a member of the Southeastern or B-10 associations.
