Penn State has one Heisman winner, John Cappelletti in 1973, and the speech he gave that night is the most famous in the award’s history. The runners up, including Ki-Jana Carter and Saquon Barkley, and why the number is one.
Penn State claims two national titles, 1982 and 1986, both won in bowl games under Joe Paterno. The championship seasons, and the five unbeaten teams, including 1994, that finished second or worse anyway.
Beaver Stadium holds 106,572 and is expected to top 108,000 during 2026, which would make it the largest in America for the first time. The record crowd of 111,030, the renovation, and how the stadium was moved in 700 pieces.
Ohio State leads Penn State 26 to 14 and has won nine in a row. The series record, the games that created the White Out, and the schedule quirk that means no meeting in 2026 or 2027.
Every Penn State head coach since 1892 with records. Joe Paterno’s 409 wins and 46 seasons are the most in the sport’s history, and Matt Campbell begins in 2026 after James Franklin was fired mid season.
Georgia has 42 consensus All-Americans and 16 unanimous selections, ten of them since 2009. Every unanimous pick, Herschel Walker’s three straight, the three time honourees, and the defence that produced two in 2021 and 2022.
Sanford Stadium holds 93,033 and has drawn 93,246. Built in a ravine in 1929 and opened against Yale, it has been expanded nine times. The capacity history, the record crowd, and the hedges.
Georgia has produced 84 NFL draft picks and 21 first rounders in ten seasons under Kirby Smart, including the record 15 player class of 2022. The 2026 class of eight, and the numbers behind the pipeline.
Every Georgia bowl game with scores, from the 1942 Orange Bowl through the 2025 Sugar Bowl. Sixty four postseason games, second most in the sport, two national titles won in them, and a 63 to 3 Orange Bowl.
Georgia is 904 wins, 434 losses and 54 ties all time, ninth in college football. The record, why the percentage lags the wins, and the Kirby Smart decade that has been the best in program history.
