This is exactly why I don't agree with "game forfeiture" and "vacating wins". Name ONE thing that forfeiting a game or vacating a win does. What happened on the field happened. Period. Nothing will ever erase the past. Take for instance, 2007. Both us and Florida State had to vacate wins that year. Florida State beat us. So, what is that saying? That the game between us and Florida State never actually happened? It's too confusing.

  • It re-writes history. If the wins are vacated, should the individual statistics be vacated as well? Chris Lowe wrote a good article on the tactic, which includes a great quote from Roger Schultz.

I get mixed messages from my searches. What is the ncaa total for Alabama wins?

I think Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State and Nebraska are ahead of Alabama, right?

933-319-44. On the field.
73.6 winning percentage.

NCAA made Bama vacate (pretend we didn't win) 21 wins for the ridiculous text book scandal in early 2000's.
NCAA made Bama forfeit 8 wins and a tie in 1993 for mishandling Antonio Langham signing with an agent and changing his mind.

On the field.. Bama is second to Michigan on total wins and first in winning percentage.

The 811 win total does not include the 29 wins vacated by the NCAA from 1993 and 2005-2007...so it's 840 wins on the field and 811 in the record book.
Though the 1993 games were considered forfeit (considered an Alabama loss) while the book scandle games are vacated (no one "won").
