1919 TAMU: Unscored upon. While we scored 275 over the course of the season. Seems legit to me.

We even took it easy on the NCs. 1917 we were also unscored upon and picked in some publications. But had even more points scored.

Got all the WWI vets back. 1918 was the weirdest year in CFB. A lot of teams didn't play. Others played shortened seasons. The best athletes were fighting. 1919 was the return to normality. I think 5 or 6 teams claim titles from that year, not to diminish A&M's accomplishments.

Sounds like 1899 Sewanee, the team with the greatest road trip ever. Look at the Nov 9-14 results:
