played at the FBS level prior to the 2014 season although they have played five FBS opponents prior to the 2014 season and have gone 1-4 against those opponents. Other teams that have always played at the highest level, for example Michigan, would have all of their games included in their all-time win/loss/tie record as well as all of their years they have fielded a team in their years column since all of those years were at the highest level. This may be difficult to figure out for each team and is not as simple as copying it out of the NCAA pdf but I think it gives a better win/loss/tie and year history of teams playing at the highest level of football which is what this page should be about, rather than the NCAA pdf which lists wins/losses/ties and years when teams are considered "senior colleges" .

or transitioning to it. It does not reflect FBS wins and losses or wins and losses at the highest level . FCS wins shouldn't even count as FBS wins really, but I can see why they're included. It might take a lot of research to figure out which games were won against teams at the highest level but that will give a better representation of who the all-time winningest teams are and the teams with the highest winning percentage. I think I saw Old Dominion was up there at the top of winning percentage but they don't deserve to be close to teams like Notre Dame, Oklahoma, and Penn State. ODU is a joke compared to those three. To say they have such a great comparable record, or any lowly team like Appalachian State does, is just criminal.

The reason we didn't do that is because this is the team's overall record, as it is listed in the NCAA's official record books. It is hard to calculate team's overall records in FBS unless you know what year they joined FBS, and also what do you do about teams prior to 1976 when there was no division
282:
If you don't want the records to be when teams are FBS teams or teams competing at the highest level why do you title the page 'NCAA Division I FBS football win-loss records?' That title can be misleading because all this page is, is NCAA record book records of teams that are currently in the FBS

I didn't create the page, I started updating it 2 years ago because the stats on the page were outdated and people were using unreliable stats. I just stayed with the name on the page. It does say overall though, I think that would state what the article is about. It is also explained in the intro
240:
I think the win/loss/tie for each team should be their all-time record while playing at the highest level of college football or if they had years not at the highest level of football games can be included against teams playing a the highest level. For example, Old Dominion has not had any games

between FBS and FCS or I-A and I-AA? It is unfair to list teams recently joining FBS by their FBS record only, and then not doing that to teams that have joined 10 or more years ago. If you would like to do that, please start a different page reflecting teams records as FBS teams. -RhinoSpear79

paragraph. I also agree that the wins outside of the FBS are weak, but the NCAA counts them and the NCAA has the official record. And like I stated earlier, a page could be started showing teams win-loss records in the FBS and since I-A/I-AA was created. -RhinoSpear79

The initial sort of this page is by winning percentage, not overall wins. The page is adjustable in order to see different comparisons such as overall wins or losses or ties, winning percentage, conference affiliation, or teams in alphabetical order.

I recently updated the stats to the end of the 2022 football season. All the conferences are aligned for the 2023 football season. I also added a rank for the first column that allows users to see where teams rank.

The source I use for this site is the NCAA official records. I do not use the College Football Data Warehouse due to the amount of differences between that and the official NCAA records.

article, arbitrarily cutting of the list at 10, and the lack of third party references justifying the use of a top 10, the article seems to violate
75: 175: 136: 263:
I believe that the records should just be from when the teams were FBS teams, and not including when they were FCS teams playing FBS teams.
248: 432:
Is there a way to have it automatically calculate the win % using a formula based on Wins/Losses/Ties ?? That would save lots of time.
290: 475: 439: 421: 338: 366:. The article also seems unnecessary as it is duplicating information from this article and therefore seem very close to violate 479: 447: 425: 395: 342: 298: 272: 256: 111: 58: 252: 17: 294: 167: 471: 443: 417: 334: 117: 47: 463: 435: 409: 326: 286: 244: 391: 183:
