Why. OU was around in the pre modern era. Why did you suck?
The Republic of Texas excels at many things. College football is an example.
There are several dates that could be considered as the beginning of the Modern Era of College Football:
a) 1912 - the first year all the rules coalesced into the modern system of scoring, team size, downs & yards-to-go for first downs, etc. The main difference since then was the addition of the two-point conversion option.
b) 1937 - the first year that the NCAA started labeling certain teams as "Major College."
c) 1946 - the year many teams returned to the gridiron after sitting out the war years.
d) 1978 - the first year that Division I was divided into 1-A (now FBS) and 1-AA (now FCS).
e) 1997 - The first year of the BCS, in which a serious effort was made to match the top two teams head-to-head in a championship game at the end of the season.

My team made the "won a legitimate championship" in the 21st century list. Did your team make that list?
