I am concerned about the future of college football and non-competitive football. Teams often open with cream puffs, but the scores are getting more lopsided. I believe the poaching of lower-level teams has led to these lopsided scores. Yes, FSU and Georgia Tech were Close. Mack Brown can recruit but can't coach, so Minnesota and North Carolina were close, same with a proud North Dakota St team and Colorado---BUT
A whopping 14 teams outscored their opponents by an average of 52.4 points to 7.4 points, and I've listed them below. Scholarship limitations served a purpose to make the game competitive; now, I suspect we will only see that when the big boys go head to head.
734 points vs 104 (52.4 points to 7.4 points)
1. Utah 49-0
2. Missouri 51-0
3. Kansas 48-3
4. CMU 66-10
5. UCF 57-3
6. Arkansas 70-0
7. Wake Forest 45-13
8. Coastal Carolina 55-27
9. Toledo 49-10
10. Tulane 52-0
11. Tulsa 62-28
12. UAB 41-3
13. Illinois 45-0
14. Rutgers 44-7
