Week 3 Discussion

Re: Week 3 Discussion

When I saw it was 37-0 at the end of 1, I was expecting the worst beating of a FBS team ever. I believe Penn State still holds that record of 81-0 against Cinci from the 90s if I'm not mistaken.

I fear Arkansas will have no answer for Tenn's offense, especially after watching their performance against UAB.

Houston over Tulsa 100-6 in 1968.

For power conference teams, I wonder if anything tops West Virginia beating Rutgers 80-7 in 2001? Both teams were awful that year, too…WVU finished 3-8 (in Rich Rod’s first year). Of course, Rutgers is a stretch to call a power conference team at that point but they technically were in a BCS conference, haha.

EDIT: Oh yeah, Michigan beat Rutgers 78-0 in 2016!

Back in '86, Oklahoma beat Missouri 77-0 (and they have at least one 6+ TD shutout over every member of the former Big Eight), as well as a 77-0 win over Texas A&M in 2003 (a game that was 77-0 in the 3rd quarter).

In 1980, they put up 84 points on Colorado (gave up 42 points) and set the record for rushing yards in a game with 758. Eight years later, they put up 70 on Kansas State (as usual back then) and gained 768 rushing yards, which is still the record today.
