Last outright conference title
Texas Tech - 1955
Duke - 1962
Indiana - 1945
First-time FBS conference titles for Kennesaw State (CUSA) and James Madison (SBC) as well. What a season.
A lot of people seem to operate under the assumption that making a CCG means you don’t get dropped in favor of idle teams. The only reason SMU didn’t fall out entirely in favor of Bama last year is they lost to Clemson on a walk off FG. Bama got handled today and have by far the worst loss of...
