In all fairness. I would have loved doing something like this when I was young. I remember storming the field after the Walden 0-10-1 season and tearing down the goal post when we beat some horrible team. However, getting the most losses record, then storming the field chanting "We are the worst" is right up my ally.

The 150 greatest teams in college football's 150-year history

There are so many sorry seasons to choose from the annals of the Big Ten's smallest school, from Ara Parseghian's 0-9 1957 team to this year's shockingly bad squad that has flirted with our most recent Bottom 10. But those teams didn't make history. The '81 team did. Between 1979 and '82, the Wildcats set the major college record for consecutive losses, with 34. The pinnacle of that futility came in the second half of the '81 season, when a 61-14 loss to Michigan State moved Northwestern into sole possession of the longest losing streak, then at 0-29. The home crowd (I'm using that term very loosely) celebrated witnessing history by storming the field, tearing down the goalposts and chanting "We're the worst!" They must have been students from Northwestern's legendary journalism school, because that statement was extremely accurate.
