To be fair, the 11 and 12 game college football schedules are relatively recent things. I'm not sure when the schedule went from 10 games to 11, then 12, but I do know the 1968 NAIA National Champs played a 10 game regular season schedule, losing only once for an 11-1 record. That's not to diminish what this team accomplished, but some previous Trojans/Red Waves didn't have the opportunity to win more than 12.

Troy went to 11 game season when they moved up to then 1-AA in 91. 12 game seasons I believe started around 2001
