Oklahoma is the Best College Football Program of the Modern Era

The University of Oklahoma is clearly the best college football program in the modern/post-WWII era. The stats speak for themselves.

OU has the highest combined regular-season and post-season winning percentage in the history of NCAA Division I: .754. No other program has won more total games since the end of WWII. No other program has won more national titles since the end of WWII. I don't see how this is even debatable.

First in winning percentage, total games won, and national titles?! Better than Notre Dame, USC, Alabama, and Ohio State. Love 'em or hate 'em...the Sooners are the best college football program. Check your facts:

Alabama is still the best

Thanks for your comment. You make a strong case for the Sooners. Certainly, they are right up there. But, of course, you are only looking at post-WWII numbers. Our article is "best all-time football program" not just since WWII.

Also, I have to question the over-all strength of schedule that OU historically has played. Other than Nebraska and Texas I don't see that the Sooners have had to face the quality of opponents that Bama has over the years (i.e. Auburn, LSU, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, etc).

But, hey, OU has a great football tradition and a great football program. Your point is well taken.
