1947 College Football National Championship

The 1947 College Football National Championship was awarded to the University of Michigan Wolverines, who finished the season undefeated with a 10-0 record. At that time, there was no formal playoff system; instead, several organizations selected national champions based on rankings, polls, and their own criteria. Michigan was recognized by major polls like the AP and the United Press, solidifying their claim. This season is notable for Michigan’s dominant defense, and their victory helped cement their status as champions of college football that year.
