Im not even sure its true. But I think this series (tie), the Giants series, and another series it is the case. At least it seems like it lol. Fuck Cleveland.

EDIT: ok, so we tied this series 5-5 and in the Giants series it was 6-4 in favor of errors. Basically, we suck.

You're correct. I was just thinking of current D-1A teams.

That's because Cumberland College had disbanded their team the year before but Georgia Tech wouldn't let them out of their contract to play.

Also, in that Georgia Tech game, Cumberland had supposedly used professional ringers to beat GT 22-0 in a baseball game earlier that year. GT also never attempted a pass.

I believe that in that GT/Cumberland game; there was a point where GT no longer kicked the ball of to Cumberland. In fact, Cumberland had few players, so to preserve them, they kicked off to GT after GT scored.
