At least they got an A for effort

ESPN ranked the 25 worst teams of the past 25 years. I can think of at least one school that should be on their list...

I mean, where is Oberlin College? Where is the Fighting Crimson? Or the Crimson Yeomen? Or the Fighting Farming Yeomen, or whatever the hell we're called? We didn't win a football game for four years, and then when we did we rushed the field (all 26 of us in attendance) and ripped down the goalposts. At least, I think that's what we did. That might have been a myth, an urban legend if you will. But I'd like to think we did that.

We are dramatically worse than most of those teams. Even in getting recognized for our losing ways we can't win. Maybe that's the ultimate proof of our collective ineptitude...we were so bad they wouldn't allow us the satifaction of public recognition.

I was surprised that Columbia was ranked so high. Oberlin lost over 40 games in a row twice in less than 10 years. Although Prairie View University proved that at least one college team was worst than Oberlin. While watching the special I did wonder if Oberlin was going to make a mention, or maybe, even the cut. Damn Disney.

'88 O's are in the Top 10. Not bad for a team from Ballmur...
