Well Michigan may not have reclaimed the highest winning percentage, yet, but they have moved up to 14 National Championships which moves them within two of Alabama at 16. Michigan is 2nd all time in National Championships.
(Note: I didn't include Yale or Princeton in this as most of their championships came before the start of last century and I did include 1973 and 1985 as they should have had a share of those titles)
January 9th, 2024 at 9:46 PM ^
1985 was great, but no, we did not deserve a share of the title with Oklahoma.

Well, it's obvious that we trained harder and longer than the NCAA allows. Otherwise, we wouldn't produce such magnificent beasts - with flexibility from all that stretching!
January 9th, 2024 at 2:05 PM ^
Holy crap.
This is freaking unbelievable.
GO BLUE!
January 9th, 2024 at 2:11 PM ^
Correct, in that I literally don't believe it.
I have no idea what calculation OP is using, but if I use the standard of (wins + ties/2) / games, I get these values:
OSU: 0.7337037
Michigan: 0.733668
Alabama: 0.733457
(Edit: fixed typo)
January 9th, 2024 at 2:24 PM ^
alabama should be 0.733457 (im sure that was just a typo on your part)
January 9th, 2024 at 2:58 PM ^
Yep, thanks for that. Fixed in the original.
January 9th, 2024 at 2:25 PM ^
I ran this last week because there was a post about it and you are correct, except for the typo in Alabama's number.

To hell with Notre Dame!! They are eating our dust along with OSU and Alabama....
January 9th, 2024 at 2:13 PM ^
And rightfully so!
January 9th, 2024 at 2:18 PM ^

sorry I stole this from Reddit from it looks like the math is wrong
mods delete and send me to Bolivia
January 9th, 2024 at 2:25 PM ^
Crap. Oh well. It was nice for a minute.
January 9th, 2024 at 2:40 PM ^
Bro, you think an Ohio State fan is gonna be able to do the math and prove you wrong? We should just roll with it secure in the knowledge that this kind of advanced arithmetic is not in the wheelhouse of the brain trust of Columbus BusinessBall, Inc.
January 9th, 2024 at 2:18 PM ^
Would be nice but not accurate. Michigan is at .733668
(1004 + (36/2))/1393
January 9th, 2024 at 3:26 PM ^
Correct. NCAA applies NFL rule that ties are worth half a win. (Although apparently not written down anywhere in any rules. And NFL only adopted that rule a few years ago, IIRC.)
By that measure, the Suckeyes are 0.0035% ahead of us. Correct, three-and-a-half-thousands of one percent. That's like a Planck length enough to gain a first down, sort of thing. In double overtime...
January 9th, 2024 at 2:22 PM ^
Fuck osu, they can't even win 1000 games!
January 9th, 2024 at 9:22 PM ^
They are a bunch of losers!
January 9th, 2024 at 2:23 PM ^
Everything is perfect again in the world.
January 9th, 2024 at 2:25 PM ^
I'll see if I can find the link...a few weeks ago I read an article stating that if UM defeated Bama, that would move UM into the #2 all-time winning percentage, and OSU would stay at #1 by the thinnest of margins.

JJ finishes(?) I believe at 27-1 as a starter. What a run its been filled with so many all time greats
January 9th, 2024 at 2:33 PM ^
Double post
January 9th, 2024 at 2:35 PM ^
The only reason it's even close is the stupid Covid year. We went 2-4 while OSU went 7-1 and Bama 13-0 (!).
January 9th, 2024 at 2:36 PM ^
We had this discussion before the Rose Bowl when we were still in third. Quailman showed the math: we are second and only .0001 behind Ohio State, who moved back to #1 because we won the National Title. I'll take that trade.

Ohio State is 964-333-53 for a .7337
If UM beats Bama,
Bama falls to 965-337-43 for a .73345 and UM improves to 1003-353-36 and .7335
If UM wins the title, they are now 1004-353-36 and .7336
January 9th, 2024 at 2:52 PM ^
We're one more undefeated season away from reclaiming it.
January 9th, 2024 at 2:58 PM ^
We are one Ohio State loss away from reclaiming it.
January 9th, 2024 at 3:03 PM ^
This isn't true. I wish it was.
I did the math and OSU is at .73370 and we are at .73366. If we were to win more game we would have taken it though.
The formula is (wins + (ties/2))/Games
I'm not sure why a poster is just making up numbers
January 9th, 2024 at 3:33 PM ^
No matter if the win % thing isnt correct someone needs to update winsipedia!!
January 9th, 2024 at 4:19 PM ^
This is huge.
We own the record for more wins than anybody else, but rivals will say that we just started playing earlier.
But owning the win % record shows that we beat a higher percentage of the teams we played than anybody else.
Owning both records shows that we are truly the winningest team of all time!
January 9th, 2024 at 5:16 PM ^
Head to head wins FTW!
