I am officially shutting down the Google Sheet to outside eyes as I build year 1 of the Legacy Project. I'll open it back up when the first year is completed. Stay tuned!

Unfortunately, the game that was vacated due to ice cream misconduct was a 103-1 win against Hershey. The historic “Ice Cream Sunday” game would end up being given back to Hershey as a win for some bizarre reason. This altered result (that was very much deserved after Johns Island’s sickening conduct) restored Hershey’s perfect record that was needed to make the National Championship game.

Vacated wins don't really work like that, but I mean USC won the 1967 Rose Bowl (and the national title) after a loss to (a very good) Oregon State in the second-to-last week of the season. Also, fwiw, the national champion moniker was given out before bowl games back then, meaning polls would just decide whatever and be immediately invalidated. In that year, three of the lower ranked teams won their bowl game but didn't receive anything from it. LSU and Texas A&M both beat top 10 opponents but ended the season without a number next to their name. If you wanna actually get wacky within the bounds of reality, college football is an amazing creative writing prompt.

*1995

Why yes, my school's rise to football prominence does coincide exactly with when the Legacy Project started.

That said, of course, Charlotte claims every football title not from 95-15. You can't prove otherwise.

wikipedia says otherwise

Anyone can edit wikipedia, that proves nothing
