I missed one.

Of all the teams I could have missed, and it was Notre Dame.

It’s good to see “Pitt” is not a right answer.

I missed 9

Boston College (a gross oversight), Georgia Tech (a gross oversight), Clemson, Tulane, Marshall, Minnesota, South Carolina, Hawaii (duh), Miami Ohio, and Cincy (another gross oversight).

I missed

Tulane and Marshall. I really think I could have had an extra 2 minutes and would not have remembered Tulane.

I for some reason clearly remember them being undefeated

I think it was because that was the first year I can clearly remember college football outside of Penn State.

Reminds me of a trivia question:

Which team was ranked #1 in the very first BCS poll?

correct!

The fighting Cade McNowns were ranked #1 in the BCS polls. They ended up losing their last game against Miami in a rescheduled hurricane game, then losing to Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl to finish 10-2.

I really thought it was Nebraska too

But they were at 18 when they lost in ’98

Is missing 5 acceptable for a guy who didn't start following any sports until the 2007 Penn State vs. Tennessee Outback Bowl?

Don’t chastise me, I was a geek. Now I’m just a geek who loves sports. Clemson and I guess Syracuse were my only stupid misses. Also missed Tulane, Marshall, and Miami (OH).
