<P> Professional motorcycle racer Ricky Carmichael had perfect seasons in 2002 and 2004 . In 1997, road racer Tommy Kendall started the 13 - race SCCA Trans - Am Series season 11--0, the longest documentable win streak in worldwide professional road racing . In the 12th race, he was battling for the lead on the final lap, but spun out and finished second . The feat would be extremely difficult in NASCAR, because of the length of the season (currently 36 races). </P> <P> In 1966 Waynesburg College went 11--0 after a 9--0 regular season record . In December 1966 Waynesburg defeated New Mexico Highlands in Albuquerque, New Mexico in the playoff game, and, defeated Whitewater Wisconsin in the NAIA Champion Bowl at Tulsa Oklahoma . This was, and still is a college football rarity . Very few college football teams have won a College National Football Championship (including playoff games) with an undefeated record . </P> <P> Due to relatively short seasons through most of college football history, the list of undefeated Division I football teams includes dozens of teams . The highest level of college football, the Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (introduced as Division I-A in 1978), did not use a playoff to determine a champion prior to the introduction of the four - team College Football Playoff (CFP) in 2014 . The system replaced by the CFP relied on a combination of polls and computer rankings to choose two teams to play one title game in a system known as the Bowl Championship Series . Prior to 1992, no attempt was made to match up the top two teams in a championship game, further increasing the chances of multiple teams achieving a perfect season . The record for most wins in an undefeated FBS season is 14--0, accomplished in 2002 by Ohio State, twice in 2009 by Boise State and Alabama, in 2010 by Auburn, and in 2013 by Florida State . </P> <P> The University of Washington's FBS record 64 - game unbeaten streak included five straight perfect seasons from 1909--13 . The University of Oklahoma's FBS record 47 game winning streak included three straight perfect seasons from 1954--56 . </P>
