Vanderbilt | 1904 — James Franklin did get the Commodores to nine wins in back-to-back seasons, but the 1904 team took every team it played behind the woodshed. These Commodores put up points at a modern-day pace with 52.7 points per game. On the other side of the ball, they gave up less than five points all season.

From CBS Sports: “When a team gives up four points during an entire nine-game season, that has to top the list. To make things even more interesting, those four points were scored by Missouri Mines on an 18-yard drop kick.”

Missouri | 2007 — After beating Kansas in the regular season finale, the Tigers reached the No. 1 ranking headed into the Big 12 Championship against Oklahoma. While Missouri lost that game to fall shy of the national title, this was still a season to be commended as they averaged close to 40 points per game with Chase Daniel at the helm of the offense.

From CBS Sports: “Even though that title game appearance slipped through their fingers, it shouldn't take away from a season that included 4,306 passing yards from quarterback Chase Daniel and 1,039 rushing yards from Tony Temple.”

Arkansas | 1964 — This Arkansas team toppled No. 1 Texas and No. 9 Texas Tech to complete an undefeated regular season before falling to LSU in the Sugar Bowl. The Razorbacks did get awarded a national championship from one outlet, the FWAA, at the end of the season though.

From CBS Sports: “The two signature wins were a 14-13 triumph over then-No. 1 Texas in October and a 10-7 Cotton Bowl win over No. 6 Nebraska to polish off the perfect record. Those seven points scored by the Cornhuskers were the only points the Hogs defense gave up over the last six games of the season.”
