College football is in its 150th year of existence. The Big Ten has plenty of history behind it, and over the years, many coaches have put together legendary runs that should be remembered forever.

ESPN put together a list of the top 150 coaches of all time recently and three long-time B1G coaches are among the top 10. Many other Big Ten coaches can be found in the list as well, of course.

Here’s the list in its entirety.

Here are the top 10:

  1. Paul (Bear) Bryant: 323-85-17 overall
  2. Nick Saban: 242-65-1
  3. Knute Rockne: 105-12-5
  4. Tom Osborne: 255-49-3
  5. Eddie Robinson: 408-165-15
  6. Charles (Bud) Wilkinson: 145-29-4
  7. Joe Paterno: 409-136-3
  8. Bobby Bowden: 377-129-4
  9. Woody Hayes: 238-72-10
  10. Frank Leahy: 107-13-9

Also, very much so outside of the top 10 is one of the best B1G coaches to ever do it: Urban Meyer. Meyer only lasted seven seasons in Columbus, but went 83-9 during his time there.

He ranks No. 46 all-time and is 187-32 overall during his time as a head coach.

What do you think of the list, B1G fans?
