Colorado and Missouri forfeits

edit

The language around the forfeits to Colorado and Missouri needed to be tighten and aligned with sourcing. What can be said with the current sources:

  • The Big Eight vacated wins over Colorado and Missouri
  • Kansas (Media Guide, primary source) displays their "on field" W-L record within their Media Guide, while also clearly stating "Later ordered to forfeit victories over Colorado and Missouri because of ineligible player"
  • There is no sourcing of NCAA view point (per norms), as the sanctions were given by the Big Eight conference
  • Forfeits and vacated wins are still inconsistently treated in the CFB project, but slowly prior seasons (like this) are becoming more inline with recent season (WP:RECENTISM).
  • Here is an incomplete list of such team seasons [1]
