[QUOTE="Supersizethatorder-mutt, post: 782202, member: 435"] I just did some more research, and apparently Pitt and Michigan were named co-national champions, Pitt being undefeated and sitting on top of a 30 game win streak. [URL unfurl="true"]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1918_college_football_season[/URL] So I don't know why that other article claimed that Tech won the NC. A key paragraph from the Wikipedia article on that year is --- [B]"Perhaps the highest profile game was a highly publicized War Charities benefit staged at [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forbes_Field']Forbes Field[/URL] in Pittsburgh in front of many of the nation's top sports writers, including [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Camp']Walter Camp[/URL]. The game pitted [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Heisman']John Heisman[/URL]'s undefeated, unscored upon, and defending national champion [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1918_Georgia_Tech_Golden_Tornado_football_team']Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets[/URL] against [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenn_Scobey_Warner']"Pop" Warner[/URL]'s [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1918_Pittsburgh_Panthers_football_team']Pittsburgh Panthers[/URL] who were sitting on a 30-game win streak. Pitt defeated Georgia Tech 32–0."[/B] [/QUOTE]
