The rule

A tie hands the belt to the challenger instead of leaving it with the holder.

The real belt borrows boxing's rule: a draw doesn't move the title. Flip that one call and every tie since 1877 becomes a title change -- 54 of them, each rerouting everything after it.

The two histories part ways on October 19, 1878: Princeton 2–0 Pennsylvania, a game the real belt was never on the line for. From there the universes have agreed on the holder 48% of the time, most recently on November 1, 2026. Right now the two agree: Baylor holds both.
