Well we did share it that year with Alabama, Michigan, Navy, and the perennial powerhouse, Lafayette (though it seems as though all those other teams were "retroactively" declared champions by various polls/predictors that came later).

In any case the 20s era of Stanford was what I was referring to when I posited the Uruguay parallel.

Would've been awesome to see that Stanford - Alabama Rose Bowl game. Also would be awesome if we still could play 7 out of 10 regular season games at home...it'd be like we were in the SEC! I suppose "Olympic Club" is about as tough a nonconference opponent as any of the FCS schools SEC teams schedule now as well.
