    Something interesting to note:
    People will tell you that Michigan is the top college football program out there because they are #1 in wins and #1 in win percentage. But aside from their split title in 97, they would be on this list as well.

    They haven't won a unified national championship since world war II, in 1948, while LSU has 3 since then. Just something I like to remind my Michigan friends...

    Very good point, and I actually had to go back and edit the original post because I didn't have them listed as winning a championship. I either missed it when I was reading the website I looked at or it just wasn't there.

    What about aTm ? Where would they rank on the list of schools to never win a championship?

    probably between them and Arky for best to never win it.

    Nooch offers a good guide to follow with those stats about top 10's and 20's, but I'm wondering where Wisconsin falls in those same stats?

    Iowa In the Polls

    Starting in 1955, college football data warehouse shows Iowa with...

    20 top 25 AP
    10 top 10 AP

    It would appear that little tiny stretch of 19 non-winning seasons from 1962 to 1980 held us back a tad.:shock:
