If I am not making the assumption that 2 losing seasons in a row also occurred during the three decades then you can add Air Force, Fresno St, and Toldeo to the list. This was based on results from 1982 to last years season. I do not currently have the time to review the rest of the conferences.

Random afternoon fact: Now that ULM and WKU have joined the club, all 120 programs to join the FBS prior to 2012 have reached a bowl game.
The ULM Athletics and ULM Football accounts retweeted it like becoming the last FBS team to go to a bowl game was something to be proud of. :laugh:

Who is No. 65? This university's athletic director has three children. The eldest shares his first name with a clothing line founded in 2002.

C-USA via our SID favored our WBB team over our football and MBB teams in the press release. That was nothing to be proud of either.

Who is No. 64? This program's coach attended the same university as an American League pitcher who once went 9-12 in a season despite pitching 13 complete games and compiling a 2.78 ERA.

#64 will be Mississippi State.
Dan Mullen is an alumnus of Ursinus College (PA). Jing Johnson (1917 Philadelphia Athletics) went 9-12 with a 2.78 ERA and 13 complete games and also graduated from Ursinus.

I guess that's a perfect example of lack of run support.

Dead-ball era, plus the era when most full-time starting pitchers threw close to or over 300 innings. Johnson pitched in 34 games in 1917 with just 23 starts and still worked 192 innings.

RC, you are amazing.......
Re: USA Today College Football Countdown FKA Pre-Snap Read Countdown FKA The Quad Cou
I take no credit other than for figuring out what to search and then letting Lycos do the work. "9-12 2.78 ERA" did the trick to pull up Johnson's stats. That led to Ursinus that led to Mullen.
Several of these clues have been impossible to track down that easily.
