The Sports Aesthetics: A
Uni Watch Fans Page will be posting a
minimum of 1 NCAA Football Team (FBS, FCS, D2, D3, NAIA) a day to celebrate the
150 years of College Football. The teams will begin with the oldest team in
their respective conference (Big Ten = Oldest Conference) until all the teams
are listed. The team helmets will go back to the early 1960’s and their current
logo will be used.
The Central Oklahoma Bronchos football team represents the
University of Central Oklahoma (UCO) in college football. The team is a member
of the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association (MIAA), which is in
Division II of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The UCO
Bronchos football program began in 1902 and has since compiled over 600 wins,
two national championships, and 26 conference championships. In 1962, the
Bronchos went 11–0 on the season and defeated Lenoir–Rhyne University (NC)
28–13 in the Camellia Bowl to claim its first NAIA national championship. Twenty
years later, Central Oklahoma defended its home turf and defeated Colorado Mesa
University (then Mesa State College) 14–11 in the NAIA national championship
game to take its second title and finish the season with a 10–2 record. Despite
its rich history in football, Central Oklahoma has struggled beginning in the
late 2000s. The program has not participated in the NCAA Division II playoffs
since 2003. The Bronchos play their home games at Wantland Stadium, a
10,000-seat football stadium built in 1965. The Bronchos have enjoyed nine undefeated
home seasons and are 5–1 in playoff games at Wantland Stadium.
