2 years ago, Northern Illinois was the only team to beat Notre Dame prior to the CFP Final. They went 8-5 with a Famous Idaho Potato Bowl win, and had generally been a strong MAC team.
As a new Mountain West member, they are the only winless FBS team in the country.
One sports fan who is having an excellent year is current UCLA Chancellor Julio Frenk. The schools that heβs served as Chancellor, President, and Dean at over the last 2 decades are a combined 20-0 in Football this season.
@captaingandalf Mike Locksley also fit into that mold of coaches who seemed to survive a bit too long because they were genuinely nice guys and their bosses liked them.
Baylor fires Dave Aranda.
Went a perfectly balanced 40-40 at Baylor (less balanced 26-32 in Big 12). Peak was 2021's 12-2 Sugar Bowl season.
His final game was losing to Kansas.
A classic Big 12 finale.
There are only two conferences that:
β’ Have an undefeated team (championship contender at the top)
β’ All teams have a P4 win (no dead weight at the bottom)
Many refer to these 2 conferences as the P2.
