Chart 1 of 1 · College football
Which college football conferences won the most games against other conferences over 10 seasons?
The interactive chart needs JavaScript. The numbers are on the chart's page.
Over the 10 seasons through the one that ended in January 2026, the SEC won 72.6% of its games against FBS teams from other conferences, bowls included, ahead of the Big Ten at 70.4% and the Big 12 at 63.0%. The Mid-American won the fewest, 27.2%. Teams count for the conference they were in each season, so realignment moves teams between bars; the Pac-12 counts through 2023, before most of its teams left. Games against lower-division (FCS) teams don't count.
