All-Time Top Five Teams
By winning percentage. The games played through Sep 9, 2006 are included:
- Michigan: 850-281-36 (.7438)
- Notre Dame: 813-267-41 (.7435)
- Alabama: 776-301-43 (.7121)
- Texas: 801-314-34 (.7119)
- Ohio State: 777-300-53 (.7111)
Texas' loss dropped them below Alabama into fourth place. An interesting note is that despite the fact that Alabama has one less win and one more loss than us, they are a thousandth of a point ahead of us due to us having 10 more ties (each tie couonting as a half win and half loss).

I'll wager 1000 vCash that Texas passes Alabama again in ... oh, about 4 weeks.

If we finish undefeated and Alabama and Texas both finish with 2 losses, we take over 3rd place all-time.

Alabama really sucks this year. They'll be lucky to go to a bowl game so we'll definitely pass them this year.

I was driving around Saturday morning and they were listing the top 5 programs historically (Like the one thread we have, that is, not based strictly on winning pct.) and they tossed out the same bunch of team we had, Ohio State, Michigan, Alabama, Oklahoma, Texas and so on.
Anyway, so this guy calls up and he's all upset that Nebraska isn't on the list. So, he says (quote approximate)
"You have to include Nebraska. 3 Heisman trophies, 5 National championships, top 10 all time wins. Nebraska should be up there and you should get rid of the pretenders, like Ohio State and Michigan" (He definately refered to Ohio State and Michigan as 'pretenders')
I had half a mind to call in and remind this guy via the radio that Ohio State has as many NCs, is also Top 10 all time wins, and has more heismans. I guess by his criteria, Nebraska is the pretender... and conspicuously missing from the top 5 all time winning pct. list, I might add.
