[edit] created article

Will be back to expand later. Feel free to add on to it if you can. I have included references if you want to help expand this. --Jayron32 19:44, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List semi-complete, with records

completed tables from AP records. Still need to fill in pre-1934, 1936, and several years in the 1960's when the AP poll was only top 10. Also, there may be some stragglers that never made the poll, but still finished undefeated. Please update as needed, but also update the team records at the end. --Jayron32 05:16, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Division 1-AA

I'm a big I-AA fan and I included the I-AA undefeateds at the bottom of the list. It's not very pretty but I think they deserve note, too. Going undefeated in I-AA is pretty ridiculous seeing as it's only happened 4 times in 27 years (14.8% chance) while I-A is pretty much every year ~90%. Excaliburhorn 22:15, 7 December 2006 (UTC).

I was going to suggest that since the name of the article is "List of undefeated Division I-A football teams" then it might be best to create another "List of undefeated Division I-AA football teams" but seeing that there are very few of these, this may not be needed (is this because they have a playoff which means at most only one team a year can be undefeated?). Would it be best to rename the article "List of undefeated Division I football teams" so the inclusion of I-AA is apparent from the title?--NMajdan•talk 22:21, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
"Would it be best to rename the article List of undefeated Division I football teams" Do it. - Excaliburhorn

[edit] Refs needed for I-AA records

This is good stuff. I assume you were reading some document when you put this in. Please provide a reference so we can be complete. Thanks a bunch! --Jayron32 19:11, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Team with multiple...

Should that section be tabulated? Consistency, readability, etc... AUTiger ʃ talk/work 01:47, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Go ahead. I have no objection. Been busy updating the lists themselves. I may get to tabulating that section too, but if you have the time, feel free... --Jayron32 04:02, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
Done. AUTiger ʃ talk/work 04:32, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
