      West Virginia is 15th on the all-time win list which makes them the first team on said list without a MNC. However, they've only finished in the Top 5 twice so it's been more about consistency than greatness with them.

      Arkansas, Virginia Tech, North Carolina and Wisconsin are a few other programs in the discussion.

      Not changing sig until Florida gets their 2nd road win outside the South since 1965 (first was Rutgers in 1986) 9/28/10

        All-time wins is only part.

        Being ranked consistenly, winning your conference, winning bowls, going to bowls, etc.

        1. Arkansas has won a national title
        2. Virginia Tech was mediocre at best prior to 1995, doesn't deserve to be in this discussion. They were a homecoming opponent for major schools for a lot of their history.
        3. North Carolina football is LOL. They haven't finished a season ranked since 1997. They haven't been to a major bowl in 60 years.
        4. Wisconsin is admirable but they went from 1963-1992 without finishing the season in the top 25. No dice.

            Arky claims a title but they've never actually finished first in a major poll.

              Yeah, what is it with people on here who can't even do a google search and find out which teams have national championships by a somewhat reasonable outlet?



              The Seattle Times list Missouri as the 2007 National Champs.

              Did they hang banners?

                Apparently you couldn't do a google search to find out why everyone gives Arkansas credit for the 1964 championship.

                  I guess we'll have to do this everytime I decide to post on these boards because my posting is so sporadic.

                  Don't respond to my posts. Again...for like the 4th time.

                    Texas Tech

                    Fielded their best team ever last year and still had 3 losses.

                      Actually they lost two games. One of those was to the Big 12 champions. The other one was to a middle of the pack SEC team.

                        West Virginia. WVU has the most wins of any D-1 school that has not won the National Championship. At least that's my homer opinion.

                        I would put Virginia Tech up there, as well.

                          Technically Ole Miss finished 3rd in the SEC...making them a top tier team if you go 1-4, 5-8 and 9-12.

                          Just being picky.

                              Most wins all-time by programs with no major poll national championships...

                              1. West Virginia
                              2. Virginia Tech
