THE B1G+ TAKE Old-school blue bloods in Lincoln: Notre Dame brings the titles and the trophy case, Nebraska brings five rings of its own and a sea of red. No predictions here, just vibes and votes.
All stats through the 2025 season (incl. the 2025-26 bowls/CFP). Red = the edge. Sources: national titles = School-claimed national titles (official school record books; lists cross-checked on each program's Wikipedia infobox). Same counts as the bracket. CFP = College Football Playoff appearances, 2014-15 through 2025-26 (CFP official brackets). Bowls = Sports-Reference CFB school index (snapshot 1/29/2026, after the 2025 season); bowl W-L-T. Heismans = Heisman Trophy winners (Heisman Trust; Reggie Bush's 2005 trophy reinstated in 2024). All-time pts = B1G+ score that seeded the bracket (*at-large estimate). Logos are trademarks of their schools. Fan-made; not affiliated with the CFP or any school.
