Sewanee Iron Men - greatest college football team ever. Imagine any other team listed on this thread playing and winning this schedule.

10.21.99 Georgia (Atlanta) W 12–0 : Dawgs other losses were Vols and Tar Heels that year
10.23.99 Georgia Tech (Atlanta) W 32–0
10.28.99 Tennessee at HOME W 46–0 : Vols went 6-2 (other loss to Va Tech)
11.03.99 SW Pres at HOME W 54–0
11.09.99 Texas (Austin) W 12–0 : Texas went 6-2 (other loss to Dores)
11.10.99 Texas A&M (Houston) W 10–0 : TAMU went 4-2 (other loss to Texas)
11.11.99 Tulane (New Orleans) W 23–0
11.13.99 LSU (Baton Rouge) W 34–0 : LSU also lost to TX, TAMU, and Ole Miss
11.14.99 Ole Miss (Memphis) W 12–0 : Ole Miss also lost to Bama and Vandy
11.20.99 Cumberland at HOME W 71–0
11.30.99 Auburn (Montgomery) W 11–10 : Auburns only loss that season
12.02.99 North Carolina (Atlanta) W 5–0 : Tar Heels went 7-3-1 that season

+ played 75% of their games on the road
+ played their entire season in about half the current football season
+ schedule has 10 current FBS schools including 9 in the Big 5 (ACC, B1G, B12, PAC, SEC)
+ Only Auburn team coached by John Heisman was able to score on them
+ Sewanee was one of the first college football powers of the South, and the 99' team in particular was very strong.
