Top 10 Favorite College Football Teams

The Top Ten
1 Notre Dame Fighting Irish The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are the athletic teams that represent the University of Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish participate in 23 National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I intercollegiate sports and in the NCAA's Division I in all sports, with many teams competing in the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Largest fanbase from all over the world. New York Yankees of college football.

They pull fans from all across the country, with reason. It's a bloody shame.

2 Florida Gators The Florida Gators are the intercollegiate sports teams that represent the University of Florida located in Gainesville, Florida.

Amazing how far this program has come since they hired Spurrier. Before that, they rarely challenged for the SEC championship and I can't recall them ever being in the hunt for the National Championship.

Top 10 ranked public university and football program. No other universities in the country can match them. Fact!

My distant cousin used to own some of the land of UF. Both his parents, his two brothers, and he himself were all involved, so naturally, I'm a Gator. And I say, the more Gator, the greater.

3 Michigan Wolverines The Michigan Wolverines comprise 27 varsity sports teams at the University of Michigan. These teams compete in the NCAA's Division I and in the Big Ten Conference in all sports except women's water polo, which competes in the NCAA inter-divisional Collegiate Water Polo Association.

Glory days are once again just around the corner. If the community and fan base will just let the coach do his thing, it doesn't appear to be an issue this time around.

They are an up-and-coming team and will have a presence in the top ten rankings. Go Wolverines!

4 LSU Tigers The Louisiana State University Tigers are based in Baton Rouge and participate in the Southeastern Conference (SEC). Known for their prowess in football and baseball, they have claimed multiple national titles. Their colors are purple and gold.

The best football atmosphere in the country. No contest.

5 Texas Longhorns Texas Longhorns athletics programs include the extramural and intramural sports teams of the University of Texas at Austin.

Hook 'em Horns! Show 'em who's the best in Texas!

One of the most popular college teams. Great revenue-producing program.

6 Alabama Crimson Tide The Alabama Crimson Tide refers to the 21 men and women varsity teams that represent the University of Alabama.

Florida? LSU? Oregon? Notre Dame? Washington State? Seriously? Why are all these teams higher than the national champion? All these teams suck. The only quality team higher is Ohio State. Alabama needs to be higher. Get these crappy teams that we crushed out of this list. Alabama should be number one, followed by Ohio State and Clemson.

Has to be Alabama. The East may have invented football, but Alabama perfected it, like Brazil perfected British soccer.

Three BCS national championships in four years! And a lot more championships prior to Saban's tenure. All the talent that team has produced over the years is ridiculous. Julio Jones, Joe Namath, Bart Starr, Derrick Johnson, and a whole lot more. ROLL TIDE ROLL. And I forgot to mention the late great Bear Bryant. R.I.P.

7 Washington State Cougars

Go Cougs! These guys should be at the top. They deserve it, even though the Gators are good. They are awesome!

Cougars at number 3? Are you kidding me? They have all of five alumni.

The most fun team to watch in college football right now.

8 Mississippi State Bulldogs Based in Starkville, Mississippi, this athletic program is part of the SEC. They have achieved success in sports like baseball and women's basketball. Maroon and white are their official colors.

State, LSU, Ole Miss, and Gators are my top 4 in that order! Maybe going to an MS game tonight! Still have to get tickets though!

I live in Mississippi and Ole Miss cheated, so I like Mississippi State now.

9 Oregon State Beavers

I think I like these guys because one of their main colors, orange, is my favorite color.

10 Auburn Tigers The Auburn Tigers football program represents Auburn University in the sport of American college football.

Auburn had an amazing season in 2010!

The Contenders
11 Ole Miss Rebels The Ole Miss Rebels are the intercollegiate athletic teams officially representing the University of Mississippi.
12 TCU Horned Frogs Representing Texas Christian University, the Horned Frogs are a part of NCAA Division I sports, competing in the Big 12 Conference. Known for competitive football and baseball programs, they have won multiple conference championships. Purple and white are the official team colors.

Ohio State wouldn't be No. 2 if the CFP committee had selected correctly. They would have had TCU, who should have gone unbeaten if it weren't for a late three-score rally in the fourth quarter by Baylor. Baylor won by 3 in a 109-point contest, similar to the 2011 game between these two teams. They beat Ole Miss 42-3 and ISU 55-3 in their last two games. A 97-6 record is amazing. Trevone Boykin and BJ Catalon will be back in 2015.

13 Oregon Ducks The Oregon Ducks are the athletic teams that represent the University of Oregon, a public flagship research university located in Eugene, Oregon.

These guys are good, but I still like the Beavers better than them.

14 Illinois Fighting Illini Representing Indiana University, the Indiana Hoosiers are based in Bloomington, Indiana. They are members of the Big Ten Conference and have a storied history in men's basketball. The team colors are cream and crimson, and their mascot is Hoosier Pride.

I love these guys! They're from the state where I was born!

15 Ohio State Buckeyes The Ohio State Buckeyes are the athletic teams that represent The Ohio State University, named after the colloquial term for people from the state of Ohio and after the state tree, the Ohio Buckeye.

I live in Michigan, born and raised. My brother's a Michigan fan, and I'm an Ohio State fan. Ohio State will always be better!

Okay, I know we are your rivals, but we never say anything bad about Ohio State. I mean, come on.

I believe Ohio State is the number one team of all time.

16 Pittsburgh Panthers
17 Boise State Broncos The Boise State Broncos are the official athletic program of Boise State University. The Broncos compete in a wide variety of sports as members of the Division I Football Bowl Subdivision Mountain West Conference.

I like these guys because they have orange.

And Boise State lost to Utah State University, the Aggies! The Aggies kicked your butts!
Boise State Broncos suck!

18 West Virginia Mountaineers The West Virginia Mountaineers are the athletic teams that represent the West Virginia University in Morgantown, West Virginia. The Mountaineers have been part of the Big 12 conference since 2012.

I graduated from WVU and loved every second I was at my university. I went to every football game and still watch and DVR all the games. Can't get enough. Now my youngest daughter will be a Mountaineer. Just another reason to visit more often. GO EERS!

19 UCLA Bruins
20 Penn State Nittany Lions
21 Maryland Terrapins Based at the University of Maryland in College Park, the Terrapins compete in the Big Ten Conference. The program has achieved success in various sports, including lacrosse and basketball. Their team colors are red, white, black, and gold.

Maryland football is pretty bad, but at least our uniforms are cool.

22 Southern Miss Golden Eagles
23 Tennessee Volunteers The Tennessee Volunteers is a college football program that represents the University of Tennessee, located in Knoxville, Tennessee. As of 2019, the Volunteers have won 838 games, and six national titles (most recently in 1998). They have never won a Heisman trophy and are under second year head coach Jeremy Pruitt. Once a blue blood, the Volunteers have now fallen and are now a bottom feeder of the... read more
24 Nebraska Cornhuskers The Nebraska Cornhuskers football team represents the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Among the 128 Division I-FBS teams, Nebraska is one of ten football programs to win 800 or more games.

Nebraska is #1. Check out my list: most likely teams to win the 2019 college football playoff.
