NCAA Division I FBS overtime records

The following is a list of NCAA Division I FBS teams and their records in overtime (OT) games (as of the conclusion of the 2013 season). Overtime rules were introduced to FBS football in the bowl season of 1995-96, and the first OT game was between Toledo and Nevada in the 1995 Las Vegas Bowl. Some of the teams listed below have changed divisions since overtime rules were introduced, but only those games played while in the FBS are shown here.
