  1. Michigan – 877
  2. Texas – 843
  3. Notre Dame – 837
  4. Nebraska – 825 (I think I had their win total miscalculated before, if you’ve been keeping track.)
  5. Ohio State – 818
  6. T – Penn State – 810
  7. T – Alabama – 810
  8. Oklahoma – 797 (I think I had the OU total miscalculated as well. Damn Big 12.)
  9. Tennessee – 782
  10. USC – 773

Now back to KVB’s original post:

Thee! Ohio State University Buckeyes take the field against Frank Solich’s Ohio University Bobcats this weekend. A win could mark the program’s 800th victory. They would be the fifth team to enter the a tradition-rich fraternity of 800 win programs after Michigan, Notre Dame, Texas, and Nebraska (see graphic below).

My man Beanie Wells seems to be feeling better and better as the days go on and we should see him back in action in Los Angeles against USC. By the way, Southern Cal is number 10 on this list with 754 wins. The home and hocollege football logome scheduling trend is what creates these great early season matchups. Ohio State-Texas a few years ago was a memorable top ten battle in both years. Now Ohio State and USC. But there are future matchups on the Buckeyes schedule that could definately make or break national title hopes and have the preseason hype we all love…especially with the likes of the Terelle Pryor years coming up. Check this impressive list below for tOSU:

    I was going to ask you if there is any chance that Phil Fulmer is still coaching Tennessee when they play their home-and-home. Then I remembered that the Vols just lost to UCLA and its 3rd string quarterback…he might not be coaching next week!

  • KVB

  • mibuckeye

    Who beat Michigan for their 800th win?

  • Wisco

    All i gots to say is BIG TEN FOOTBALL!!! There is no better conference. And I'll do ya'll one better. Midwest football!!! Notre Dame should be in the BIG TEN, but 4 of those top 6 are in the midwest. Thats what I'm talking about!!!

  • LakewayLonghorn

    In the last 3 years Texas has passed Nebraska and Notre Dame in All-Time wins. We just keep reeling them in. Michigan, you're next! Might take 5-7 years, but you know it's coming — especially with Meeshigan's recent track record. This year alone we will probably make a 8 game dent in their 40 game lead. And so much for Notre Dame staying on our heels… they are in our rear-view mirror for good! Hook'em

    roll tide!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 13 national championships babay!!!!!!! how many you got????

  • adam

    roll tide

  • buckeast

    Ohio State has 7 and about a dozen near misses,but congrats on your 13. Now you have something to hang your hat on besides your pin head.

  • Husker71

    Funny I could only find 5 national championships that Ohio State won.

  • Bstro

    you know i only see 2 schools from SEC country in that top 10. HOW CAN YOU BE THE BEST CONFERENCE EVER WITH ONLY 2 SCHOOLS COMPARED TO THE BIG 10'S 5 SCHOOLS????? Are you freaking kidding me?? Here's the thing; people down in that part of the country are widely known to be, well, for a lack of a better word, idiots. So of course a bunch of idiots are going to think they are the best at everything. But for everyone else in this country, the rest of us intelligent people, we understand that the best region in this country for football is the one where football was created, the Midwest. There is NO comparison. The idiots of this country need to get a clue. Keep paying your college athletes and stay down SEC.

  • bigz

    hmmmmm. michigan 7-5 or texas 5-7 ya dumb@$$

  • Mike

    Well…Alabama really only has 6…

  • Drew

    When they regard themselves as the best football conference in the country they are talking about the current day and age where the SEC does rule in football. You can't argue with the 5-game National Championship streak with four different schools or the undefeated 7-0 record in BCS National Championship games. That is what makes them the best…You wouldn't consider Michigan to be the best football program would you? No because they have not been good for years and just because they boast the most wins throughout all of college football doesn't make them the best.

  • Drew

    Wow what a surprise, an OSU fan is trying to dawg a SEC fan….How many times have you guys beat a SEC team….1-9 maybe???

  • Drew

    What a joke Big Ten the best?? Try biggest joke…Hows it feel to lose to a non-aq team in the rose bowl? or to go 3-5 in bowl games? LMFAO yal Big Ten fans are ridiculous with all this smack talk and nothing to back it up!!!! 5-0 baby!!!!!

  • Drew

    tell that to Mississippi State lol!!!!
