List of college football coaches with 100 losses

This is a list of college football coaches with 100 career losses.[1][2] "College level" is defined as a four-year college or university program in either the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics or the National Collegiate Athletic Association. If the team competed at a time before the official organization of either of the two groups but is generally accepted as a "college football program" it would also be included.

As of 2015, coaching legend Amos Alonzo Stagg is #2 for the most losses of any college football head coach in history. As of 2012, he is tied at #7 in all-time wins and #1 in all-time ties.
