BUTTKICKINGS

[NE MT GRIZZ]

What is the worst beating your team has ever handed out
AND received. No smack, just have fun.

Montana 133
Caroll College 0 (NAIA)
1920

Montana 70
Troy St. 7
1996

Washington St. 61
Montana 0
1930
I think Minnesota beat the Griz worse than this but I couldn't find anything. :bawling:

[Pard94]

I remember playing Army back in my playing days. I can't remember the score (I am sure I have subconsciously blocked it from my memory) This would have been 1991. I think the score was something like 114-0. Worst football experience of my life. The poor Army Cheerleaders stopped doing pushups for each point scored somewhere in the 3rd quarter. The Army shot off more cannons that day then they did at the battle of Gettysburg!

Then my senior year I think we be beat Holy Cross by at least 40 points. That was a lot of fun. That was when they were going through their dark, post-Duffner years. It was like playing a highschool team.

[SunCoastBlueHen]

The worst azzkicking I remember Delaware receiving was at the hands of Arkansas St. in the playoffs Rich Gannon's senior year (1986?). The final score was something like 54-14 and they just ran up and down the field on the Hens. It was UGLY and on our home field to boot.

Most lop-sided win had to be the 2000 game against Chest Wester. 84-0 and we dropped in the polls the next week.

[bobbythekidd]

09-11-2004 GSU 84 Johnson C. Smith 3

09-07-1996 GSU 14 Florida 62

Note: This is only for I-AA, these numbers do not reflect before we were playing I-AA, or it might have been this 11-18-1939 GSU 0 Appalachian St. 59:mad:

Also I am prone to boneheaded mistakes so ya better check me.

[HENJOHN]

A couple off the top of my head:

Hens--------- 82
West Chester- 0 (2000)

Hens--------- 14
C. Michigan--- 54 (1974 Div II Nat Champ Game)

(the Hens WR in that game is now Head coach at Western Mich !!)

[OL FU]

Some of you may find this hard to believe but these were all before my time:rolleyes:

Worse loss

1918 0-118 Georgia Tech

Largest margin of victory

1920 69-0 Wofford:hurray: xlolx
1935 69-0 Piedmont :confused:

For big swings:

1921 0-62 Wofford beat us the very next year. Do you think we switched players or something

Worst in my lifetime too.

Historically I'm finding...

Delaware 93 - William & Mary 0 in 1915
Penn 89 - Delaware 0 in 1919 AND 1921

[bostonspider]

Richmonds worst loss was to VMI in 1901, 79-0, and the Spider's largest win was in 1917 versus Randolph Macon, 80-0

[lizrdgizrd]

Penn 89 - Delaware 0 in 1919 AND 1921
What, did they just grab the play-by-play from the previous game and use it as a script? xlolx

For JMU:

JMU 72 Lock Haven 0 (2000)

[HiHiYikas]

The worst butt-kicking ASU ever gave was to a school called Piedmont, back on September 26, 1936. 115-0 Mountaineers was the final score.

That was the first game of the season, and the first win a string of 4 seasons during which the Mountaineers went 32-4-2, outscoring opponents 1034-84. So you might say that App State's biggest butt-kicking began with a 115-0 win in 1936 and ended with a 64-0 win over ECU in 1939.

Bringing things closer to the present, ASU beat Davidson 63-6 back in 1986, and won 51-0 at the Citadel back in 1999.

On the other end of the spectrum, UT-Chattanooga beat ASU 72-14 back in 1978. interestingly, ASU's largest margin of victory is only 1 point shy of being double it's largest margin of defeat.

Yeah, they must have been quite the college football punching bag in the 1930's. Does the school still exist?


1918 0-118 Georgia Tech
That sounds about right for coach John Heisman of GT (or is it John Suzuki Heisman now?). He once coached GT to a 222-0 victory over Cumberland, the most one-sided game ever, in which GT scored on every posession.

[JALMOND]

The two that come to mind for Portland State, ironically involving both Montana schools...

1996 (our first year in FCS) at Missoula
UM 66 (or was it 69)
PSU 7

That same year, the Grizzlies went to Corvallis and throttled the Pac-10 Oregon State Beavers 35-14 I believe. Our ideas that we could come into the FCS and compete right away were shot right there in Missoula.

1999 in Portland
PSU 48
MSU 0

The last year in the Hysell era for the Bobcats, and the only year that we made the playoffs.

[GRZZ]

Hahaah, but that 1996 Griz team was one of the all time great teams at our level, they just ran into an even better all time team - the 1996 Marshall team (uhhhh Randy Moss)

[SochorField]

A recent one:

UC Davis 45
Montana State 0

2006 in Bozeman, that was a fun one.

[bisonguy]

[89Hen]

The two that come to mind for Portland State
First that comes to mind for PSU for me was the pasting of Delaware State. Something to the tune of 106-0?

[BigApp]

worst loss I ever remember receiving was our Homecoming loss to Wofford in 2002. The final score was only something like 26-19, but in no fashion was Appalachian in the game. The Terriers flat out whipped our a**es big time that day. :asswhip: :asswhip: :asswhip: It was ridiculous. I went home and went straight to bed even though it was still daylight out. Stared at the ceiling all night.

Most embarassing loss? the 1999 playoff debacle against FAMU. :shakingmad:

[Golden Eagle]

He once coached GT to a 222-0 victory over Cumberland, the most one-sided game ever, in which GT scored on every posession.

I believe the Yellow Jackets scored on every offensive play they ran, a feat I once achieved in Tecmo Bowl after a few tweaks.

Anyway.

Tennessee Tech's biggest whooping applied was:
November 2, 1928 - TTU 77, North Alabama 0

More recently, we beat UT Martin in 2002 68-7.

Our biggest whooping recieved was:
1923 - King College (who?) 75, TTU 0

More recently, in 1981 EKU beat us 63-10, and in 2002 Iowa State beat us 58-6.

[ngineer]

Lehigh's largest margin of victory: 1889 LEHGH 106 PENN STATE 0

Biggest margins in "The Rivalry" 1917 LEHGH 78 LAFAYETTE 0
1944 LEHIGH 0 LAFAYETTE 64

[Husky Alum]

Northeastern lost to UMass in 1999 77-0.

NU beat Stonehill 78-6 in 2003 and Cheyney 71-0 in 2004.

[Minuteman87]

Northeastern lost to UMass in 1999 77-0.
You'll be happy to know Husky, that that matches UMass' most lopsided victory ever, matching the Aggies 77-0 win over Wagner in 1931.

Worst loss as far as I can tell, was a 80-0 drubbing by Wesleyan in 1885.
In the modern era, a 71-6 loss to UConn in 1956 appears to be the worst.

Most embarrassing? 33-8 loss to BU in 1997, BU's last year!!! The BU program was in disarray, the players were deperssed and what few fans they had abandoned the program because the decision had already been made to shut down.

But two years later, in 1999 UMass beat UConn 62-20, the last year the programs played before high and mighty UConn went I-A on us. I liked that one :)

[UNH 40]

UNH 70 Central Conn. St. 21

Villanova 48 UNH 3 It was a low point for the program.

[UAalum72]

Biggest margin of victory: Albany 75, Massachusetts Maritime 6 (1974)
Worst defeat: Hofstra 65, Albany 7 (1990)

Honorable mention:
Albany 75, Niagara 9 October 6, 1973
Albany 71, Siena 8 October 13, 1973
(first year of D-III vs. club teams)

Dishonorable mention: St. Lawrence 81, Albany 0 (1923, club team)

[lizrdgizrd]

Yeah, they must have been quite the college football punching bag in the 1930's. Does the school still exist?

Yup, that Ark St game was easily the most one-sided game I've ever seen the Hens be at the receiving end of - only Gannon single handidly scoring 2 TD's saved that game from being even worse. It was like men against boys out there and it wasn't pretty. :nod:

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

I guess teams in the 1920s and 1910s didn't believe in putting the second string in. Does anyone have any 80+ point games since they have been in IAA? GSU beat DII Johnson C. Smith 84-3 in '04.

Also, on that same week, Western Illinois beat Cheyney 98-7. Those are the only modern 80+ point gamees I can think of.

[NoCoDanny]

Delaware 84 - West Chester 0 in 2000. Last score was an INT returned 98 yards. xlolx

The pick was the last play of the game. WCU was going in for a score against whoever was left to play defense amongst the subs and the ball was intercepted and run back for the TD.

IMO there is a set of games that have to be condidered the worst of all time. Throughout history there have been mismatches that in reality shouldn't have been played in the first place. However, blowouts in playoffs are really the ones that should be considered buttkickings since these are supposed to be teams of top caliber in I-AA.

Agree 100%. It makes these two even sweeter...

ASU 45, Marshall 7 - 1979
ASU 40, Marshall 0 - 1985 (I think Furman won the conference that year; ASU was 2nd-place - if Furman beat Marshall that season, how bad was it?)

Those are the two most one-sided wins in a series ASU leads 14-8

[OL FU]

Agree 100%

ASU 45, Marshall 7 - 1979

I think the 222-0 game is in Ripley's BON or some such publication. Further, if you think about it, not only would GT need to score on every possession, they probably had NO FIRST DOWNS during the entire game. This, obviously, is due to the fact that they never ever suffered the ignominy of being tackled. Yawn.

Not to bust your chops Cobble, but this thread instantly reminded me of a game while I was in school. When I looked it up, I found:

(1970) UNH 59 URI 7 (greater point differential)

[UNH_Alum_In_CT]

UNH 70 Central Conn. St. 21

Villanova 48 UNH 3 It was a low point for the program.

Thankfully, you guys recovered from that awful game. I can still see the opening kick returned for a TD! :bawling:

Looking quickly through an old media guide, I found these gems from the ancient era:

(1914) Tufts 83 UNH 0
(1898) UNH 81 Sanborn Seminary 0

Also, in not so ancient history (even for a youngster like you 40 ;) ), I found:

(2000) Maine 55 UNH 10
(1998) UNH 70 East Stroudsburg 10
(1986) UNH 66 Dartmouth 12 (probably the largest point differential in a game with a school at the same level)

And one of the most intriguing scores I saw was:

Yeah, that game was a high scoring one. Complete domination. I remember MSUM was inside the red zone and threw an interception and that was taken back for a touchdown. Ohhh, great times 2000.

[Umass74]

And one of the most intriguing scores I saw was:

(1988) UMass 64 UNH 42 Why do I have this vision of both D Coordinators sitting together doing shots of Tequila at Yoken's after this game!

I was at that game. The Wildcats led 28-17 at the half. UMass scored 47 points in the second half to win the game and the Yankee Conference Championship. UMass had 649 total yards of offense and UNH had 543!

I can still remember leaving Crowell with the UMass players jumping around. It was so deep into twilight that the scoreboard was starting to light the field.

We lost to Eastern Kentucky 28-17 in the first round of the playoffs.

Interesting facts about college football's most lopsided game...


Score by quarters: Cumberland: 0,0,0,0 - GT 63,63,54,42


Cumberland's baseball team ran the score up to 22-0 in a game against GT the previous season


Cumberland had paid professionals to take the field against GT the year before, beating the Engineers badly.


Cumberland actually discontinued its football program before the 1916 season, but the athletic department forgot to cancel the GT game. Given the insults of the previous season, Heisman wouldn't allow Cumberland to forfeit without paying a previously agreed upon fine of $3,000.


The captain of the Cumberland baseball team was put in charge of rounding up a makeshift 'football team,' comprised of 14 Cumberland students (most of whom were his frat brothers) the week of the game.


The quarters were shortened to 12 minutes in the second half.


Cumberland punted before fourth down several times.


GT never ran a pass play. Neither team recorded a first down. GT was tackled a few times (so they didn't actually score on every play they ran). Cumberland's longest play of the game was a 10-yard completed pass on 4th and 22.


12 of the 32 GT touchdowns were scored by the defense or special teams.


Heisman said his team played a 'fairly good game,' and subjected them to a 30-minute scrimmage afterwards.

We lost to Eastern Kentucky 28-17 in the first round of the playoffs.

After reading this reply, I had to look a little deeper into the Media Guide. This was a 6-5 Wildcat squad and I see names like QB Bob Jean, WR Curtis Olds (3rd all time career receiver), RB Norm Ford (4th all time career UNH rusher), WR Chris Braune (5th all time career receiver), etc. Bob Jean held most of the UNH passing records until some guy named Santos came along. :p

Who were the big offensive players for that Minuteman team? Do they also rank high in the UMass record book?

According to my press guide Jean had an amazin' day. He threw 28-51 for 452 yards!

Our QB Dave Palazzi won the Bill Knight trophy with a Santos-like 13-21 for 279 yards and 3 TD PLUS 128 yards rushing! :rotateh:

Palazzi is the best UMass QB nobody ever heard of. Is still 2nd all time in total passing yards with 5,402. If he had been playing in Whipple's or McConnell's offense, he would have been an All-American.

Actually, I think he was an assistant at the time.;) BTW--this is the worst lopsided defeat in the history of Penn State football, which we always have in our media guide.:D We haven't played the 'Nits' since 1942..

[Ivytalk]

I remember watching Harvard slaughter Columbia, 65-0, back around 1973. That has to rank right up there for the Crimson.

[YaleFootballFan]

Yale had a ton of lopsided victories in the late 1880s/early 1900s, but this one stands out the most:

1884 - Yale 113, Dartmouth 0

More recently, the one sided victories include:

1986 - Yale 47, Columbia 0
1999 - Yale 48, Valparaiso 2
1999 - Yale 44, Dartmouth 3
2000 - Yale 42, Dayton 6
2002 - Yale 42, San Diego 14

And some of the worst defeats in Yale history:

1985 - Army 59, Yale 16 (unfortunately, I was in West Point to see this one)
1987 - Hawaii 62, Yale 10
1998 - Connecticut 63, Yale 21 (perhaps the worst defeat ever at the Yale Bowl)

[CSUBUCDAD]

Bucs put a but whipping on Guilford back in 2000 by a score of 58-0. We took a serious butt whipping from the Citidal back in 2003 by a score of 64-10.

[furpal87]

The 59-15 Rhode Island game was maybe the most entertaining blowout in some ways. Rhode Island returned the opening kickoff to our 10, we stopped them, returned the ensuing kickoff for a TD (7-3 31 secs into game). Rhode Island threw for over 500 yds, but got picked 8 times, didn't have a running play until the 3rd qtr. Current coach Bobby Lamb threw 4 td's. Game started at 1:30 pm ended about 6. Strange, weird game!!

I was also at the Army game in '85. I got REAL tired of that canon they shoot off after every TD. I was also at the Hawaii game in '87. Actually a pretty good first half. Yale was down 21-10 and driving inside the Hawaii 20 with less than a minute to go in the first half. Then they turned it over, Kelly Ryan got hurt, and without Ryan, who was great that year, the 2nd half was a blowout.

Sorry about this one Ivytalk, but I remember as a little kid watching Yale beat Harvard on TV 54-0. I was just getting interested in football and asked my Dad why Yale kept kicking the ball to Harvard.

I knew as soon as I posted that some Yalie wold have to have the last word.:rolleyes:

But we beat Dartmouth 63-21 about 6 years ago.:D

Heisman said his team played a 'fairly good game,' and subjected them to a 30-minute scrimmage afterwards.[/LIST]


Talk about a hardass coach.

1985. Actually since we used to pass on every play back in those days that is how most of our games went. However the score was usually in our favor.

I recall listening to the Hawaii game at 2 am EST on WELI.

Kelly Ryan played hurt the entire '87 season and he still put up amazing numbers. The knee injury from his sophomore year made him into a one dimensional quarterback. I hate to think how Yale would've fared in '87 if it wasn't for Ryan....afterall, he engineered those last minute comebacks against UConn, William & Mary and Penn....and if wasn't for Troy Jenkins fumble, we could've added Harvard to that list (with the '87 Ivy title too).

[poly51]

Cal Poly's Biggest Blowout win was over Simon Fraser 74-7 1969
The worst loss was to University Of The Pacific 0-88 1949.

[Walkon79]

Emmit Smith led Florida - 79
Bobcats - 6

[PapaBear]

BIGGEST MAINE WIN MARGIN: 97-0 vs. Fort William (:eyebrow: ) in 1927.

BIGGEST LOSS MARGIN: 62-0 vs. Delaware, 1972.

[OldAggieAlum]

You have to go way back to find both extremes for UC Davis. I found it quite embarassing to find that the Aggies lost in 1917 to Sacramento High School 111 - 0. No I'm not making fun of Sac State's name. Sac State didn't exist then. This was Sacramento High School! Davis did not have a football team the following year.

UC Davis resumed football in 1919 and appears to have been doing much better within a few years with the following wins in 1922:

UC Davis 63 - Mare Island Marines 0
UC Davis 58 - San Jose State 0

The Lock Haven game was crazy!! They fumbled a kick off that we returned for a Touchdown...

The Troy Jenkins fumble and the Stanley Edwards penalty which nullified a Jim Parsons interception in/near the end zone towards the end of the Freezer Bowl Game in 1987.

Figures, a Notre Dame of West Haven kid screws over a kid from Milford, yet again (a little Southern CT HS football humor).

Yale's 1987 team was something special. That was the year I was being recruited to play in college, and while I had no real desire to go to school/play football 5 minutes from home, those kids were great hosts to me on my unofficial recruiting trip.

Freezer Bowl Game....you aren't kidding! 66,000 brave souls sat through that game at Yale Bowl (well, actually by the third quarter it was probably closer to 45,000 because it was sooooo darn cold!). I remember sitting in the endzone with my dad freezing to death. In fact I still have a picture of the Bowl from that game from the Yale Alumni magazine in 1988 and you can actually see us in the crowd completely bundled up.

My dad said The Game in '87 game was probably the second toughest loss he's seen in all the years he's been following Yale Football, which is 60+ years. What was the toughest he saw? The "loss" to Harvard in '68. I don't think I need to rehash what happened in that game.....

While '68 was definitely the worst, there are several in contention for 2nd place. Losses to Harvard in '74 and '79 spoiled possible undefeated seasons as did the loss to Princeton in '81. This years Princeton loss was a contender also since it prevented an outright title, and especially because they blew a big lead. Of course, a loss to Princeton follwed by a victory over H eases the sting a bit, but those Princeton games were still bad losses.

I went to the Freezer Bowl game without wearing socks!!! I was at football practice that morning, and our coach said to the Seniors "I've got tickets to Yale-Harvard, who's coming?" All I had with me were my muddy, sweaty practice socks, so I went sockless. We kept warm by drinking during the game, unbeknownst to our HS coach who was seated a couple rows in front of us. We sat in the end zone on the side opposite Yale Field.

If you have a picture of that game, I'd LOVE to see it.

I still have the ticket stub to that game.

[bulldog10jw]

I went to the Freezer Bowl game without wearing socks!!!.

I actually bought a pair of socks that were heated by batteries the morning of the game. I don't even know where I got them now, maybe that KMART on the Post Road near Law. There was no adjustment on them so my feet were roasting and the rest of me was freezing. I was hoping for a blowout one way or the other, which, of course, never happened. The funny thing is I had gone to the freshman game the day before and the weather was great, sunny and warm.

As I recall, Harvard's winning TD in '87 was scored by a kid from Montana! (Callinan or something like that.) He knew how to run in cold weather!:nod:

I remember the wind blowing so hard that Yale had to punt fron their own endzone and the punt only traveled about 10 yards. Harvard then scored on a couple of plays from the Yale 20. After all these years I don't remember whether that was the winning score, but I remember that punt going nowhere. To be fair, that was a nice and exciting Yale team, but H was probably better overall that year. Yale had a special player in Ryan and he won a lot of games for Yale with big plays, but I don't remember being as disappointed in that loss as YFF's Dad was. I thought they played great just to have a shot to win at the end.
