How many national championships have USC won?

If my information is correct, there have been 11 split national championships as awarded by the AP and UPI (now BCS) since 1954, although most probably only remember back to 1978. Starting that year, it was (AP Champ/UPI-BCS Champ):

1978 Alabama/USC 1990 Colorado/Georgia Tech 1991 Miami/Washington 1997 Michigan/Nebraska 2003 USC/LSU

The Washington Huskies and Miami Hurricans split a title in the 1991 season.

I have a sweatshirt that claims 10 National Championships. 2004 marks the 11th.

Nebraska and Michigan split a title in 1997 also.

What school has won the most national championships in Division 1A football?

Notre Dame - 11 Alabama-12 (Year / Record) (1925 / 10-0-0) (1926 / 9-0-1) (1930 / 10-0-0) (1934 / 10-0-0) (1941 / 9-2-0) (1961 / 11-0-0) (1964 / 10-1-0) (1965 / 9-1-1) (1973 / 11-1-0) (1978 / 11-1-0) (1979 / 12-0-0) (1992 / 13-0-0) Wrong Alabama cannot claim 12 because they didn't win 12 NC. First of all Notre Dame won the 1979 national championship and all the other 6 Alabama claims to have belong to other teams. So in fact I only count 5 NC. Where do you get 12?

Notre Dame has 13 consensus nation titles, although they only claim 11. This is because ND only claims AP championships as national championships. In 1938 and 1953, the majority of the polls named them champions, although AP had them #2.

What does BCS mean in college football?

A BCS team is a an FBS team that is one of the "Power Confrences: Big 10, Big 12, SEC, Big East, Pac 10, ACC, Notre Dame ( the only Independent in BCS) and soon the Mountain West. These confrences were selected to the BCS because they filled the Big Bowls prior to the BCS. The BCS is just like the American Economy, the allocation of funds is just not equal, but with the mass media, ESPN U, and talk radio smaller school are gettin big time coverage, and with good players wanting to play as soon as they get to campus such confrences like the Mountain West gain popularity, but it is not the upper class schools of the smaller confrence, but the bottom feeders that is excluding schools such as Boise State. Wyoming is a prime example of keeping the Mountain West out. But the BCS is a joke; keep the bowl games and have a playoff!!!!!

The phrase "BCS football team" varies in its usage. The phrase differs according to whether you are a have or a have-not.

Have-Nots: Participants in recent congressional hearings used the phrase to mean a team in one of the 6 BCS conferences (or Notre Dame, which gets preferential treatment by the BCS). A "BCS Conference" would be a conference with a tie-in to one of the BCS bowls.

Haves: The teams in the BCS conferences use the phrase to mean a team playing in a BCS bowl. With his team ranked eighth in the BCS, Phil Fulmer of Tennessee said, "I do believe we are capable of being a BCS football team."
