Title: "Who has more national titles, Alabama or Notre Dame? Depends on who's counting" Post by: WALL-E on January 01, 2013, 10:47:02 AM Who has more national titles, Alabama or Notre Dame? Depends on who's counting

The NCAA defines "consensus" as meaning a championship bestowed since 1950 by AP, United Press International, Football Writers Association of America, National Football Foundation/College Football Hall of Fame, USA Today/CNN or USA Today/ESPN. I'd have to add 1925 and 1926 to our total.Title: Re: "Who has more national titles, Alabama or Notre Dame?
