until kickoff · vs Hamline · Sat Sep 19 · 2 pm ET
The Johnnies of Collegeville, John Gagliardi's program — the winningest coach in college football history — with four national titles, two of them NCAA Division III crowns in 1976 and 2003.
Saint John's won four national championships under the most successful coach the sport has ever produced, and skeptics keep asking whether the Johnnies can still be great without him.
