The Success of Notre Dame Basketball...


I believe this graphic will surprise a lot of people...

Here's what I find interesting --- there is not a single team on this list -- that is ranked ahead of Notre Dame Football in all-time wins.  It just goes to show how hard it is to have enduring success in both sports.

ALL TIME WINS IN FOOTBALL:
  1. Michigan:  962
  2. NOTRE DAME:  929*
  3. Ohio State:  924
  4. Alabama: 916
  5. Texas:  916
  6. Yale:  909
  7. Oklahoma:  908
  8. Nebraska:  902
  9. Penn State:  898
  10.  Harvard:  875 

The football win rankings of the schools ahead of Notre Dame in college basketball:
  • Kentucky -- ranked #82 in football
  • Kansas -- not ranked in the top 109
  • North Carolina -- ranked #40 in football
  • Duke -- not ranked in the top 109
  • Temple -- not ranked in the top 109
  • Syracuse -- ranked #30 in football
  • UCLA -- ranked #99 in football

*Please note:  I refuse to acknowledge the 21 wins that the NCAA took away from Notre Dame...

I love that this is the subject of the last 36 hours -- the talk is Notre Dame Football -- not the fact that conferences are making major decisions about football and their fall sports...
