    Worst college football teams for the money

    For what it is worth, Forbes magazine has named Duke as one of the 10 worst college football teams "for the money." Meaning, I guess, when you look at how much the program costs the university and how many wins the team actually got. The only consolation here is that Maryland actually had a worse "cost per win" than Duke and BC was right behind Duke.

    I only went back to 1990, but I found no 70 point games. There were a few 60 point games.

    Code:
    2010	Alabama	13-62
    2000	FSU	14-63
    1998	FSU	13-62
    1996	Navy	27-64

    The only time we gave up 70 points was on 9/2/95. We lost to Florida State 70-26 in Orlando, FL. On 11/12/66, we lost to Notre Dame 64-0. That's not 70 but pretty close.

    I sat through that entire debacle again Navy and it cost me quite a while of my young (at the time) life.
