NDSU has had this video theme of Hang 10. Obviously 10 being the number of D1 National Champinships
With 1 more National Championship, we will be at the top of the list for total National Championships for all of football, all Divisions
Yale has the most National Championships in College football history with 18. Their titles were won between 1874 and 1927 and pre date the forward pass
We currently have 17
9 of our National Championships are D1. 3 are College Division (pre 1972 there were only 2 Divisions) and 5 are Division 2.
USC and Michigan have 9 D1 National Championships. Notre Dame has 13. Princeton has 15. Alabama has 16
Getting to 10 is a big number but 18 is the biggest.
Just to put it into perspective of how hard it is to win 18 national championships...
If you throw D2 and D3 into the mix.
Mount Union (D3) has 11 and the next highest is 4. Northwest Missouri State has 6 D2 titles.
If you go to the NFL, the Steelers and Patriots have won 6 each. (Cowboys and 49ers have 5 each) If you go back to NFL Championships (pre super bowl), Green Bay has won 9 NFL Championships and 4 Super Bowls
College Basketball - UCLA has 11. Kentucky has 8
Womens College Basketball - UCONN had 11. Tennessee has 8
NBA - Boston Celtics and Minneapolis Lakers / LA Lakers have 17. We could surpass them with 18
The only one that may never be caught is the Yankees with an insane 27. The Cardinals have 11
This would make us the 2nd most successful dynasty in sports history, regardless of Division. Can someone fact check me? There has to be something with more, like a ping pong national championship
