In the NFL people always said the cowboys were America's team (which I beg to differ with). At the college level who do you think is America's team? In my opinion, I think that the Miami Hurricanes are.

Oh sorry I meant to say what CFB team
 
"Miami Hurricanes" - No Way

You should watch the 30 for 30 that was done on ESPN for them. They don't have the history, and I would have to think it should be a public school.

I would go with Ohio State. Notre Dame has more championships... but again its private.
 
It used to be the U in the late 1990s and early 2000s, but now I would say it's moved to Gainesville and the University of Florida, although it's because of the god-icon that Tim Tebow seemed to become down there. I believe these next few years will see the re-emergence of Alabama as "America's Team", although don't ever count out Texas.
 
Notre Dame, Michigan, or USC

I agree that, like the Dallas Cowboys, those are three of the most polarizing teams in CFB.

I honestly don't know if there is an "America's Team" for CFB, as there's 120 teams to choose from, as opposed to 32 NFL teams.

However, I will say that no other team has Ricky "Love It Or Leave It" Stanzi, so I'd have to say Iowa is America's Team. :jimlad:

i did watch the 30 for 30. I think the canes are america's team because it shows that anyone from anywhere can make it which is what america was founded upon. Many of the players on the team have come from poor families in Dade County.
 
I'm going with the hawks, I keep hearing from them that the have the greatest stadium, tradition, coach, tail-gating, yada yada.
 
The "What have you done lately," applies here. What ever team that is winning for half a decade, and winning big, becomes America's team.
 
There is a clear answer here. America's team is Army. Not only do they have a proud tradition, but they are America's team in the sense that the players are serving their country during and after their playing days.

Don't forget Navy and Air Force.

I think in terms of "America's team," I would have to go with Navy. They do well against good competition when they are severely undersized and their uniforms are just plain sweet. They are also extremely respectable in terms of academics and the character of their students.
 
In MLB in the 70's and 80's it was the Atlanta Braves because of Superstation WTBS. Then it was the Cubs because of Superstation WGN. So using that criteria it has to be Notre Dame because of Superstation NBC.
