Led by 3rd team All-America quarterback Bob Schweickert[1], the Gobblers were 5-0 against Southern Conference opponents West Virginia, VMI, William & Mary, Richmond and George Washington. Schweickert, the team's dual-threat quarterback, passed for 687 yards and six touchdowns, and ran for 839 yards and scored scored seven TD's. He was named Southern Conference Player of the Year as voted by the media. Sonny Utz was the team's scoring leader, rushing for 567 yards and scoring 10 touchdowns. [2]

Schweickert was named Southern Conference player of the year[3].

The media did not vote for an all Southern Conference team, but did vote on an all-star team selected from the five Division I teams that played in the commonwealth of Virginia at the Time. Schweickert was joined on the first time by Utz, end Jake Adams, and guard Newt Green. The second team included tackle Gene Breen and center Burton Mack Rodgers. Tommy Marvin made the honorable mention team at end. [4] [a]

Tech was never ranked in national polls, losing its first game of the year to Kentucky which ended the year (3-6-1). The team's three non-conference wins came against ACC foes Virginia (2-7-1), Florida State (4-5-1), and Wake Forest (1-9). Tech's other loss came late in the year against N.C. State, which was the only non-conference opponent that had a winning record (8-3). [5] [6]

St. Lawrence Physiographic Province (United States)

The St. Lawrence physiographic province of the United States is an area along the Canadian border with Vermont and New York that encompasses Lake Champlain on the east and the US portion of the St. Lawrence River Valley on the west. The area is one of 25 distinct segments of the contiguous United States, classified in the second level of the physiographic categorization of contiguous areas that share geologic and topographic characteristics. The St. Lawrence province is part of the Appalachian Highlands division, the top-level physiographic category.

Canadian Boundary

[edit]

The province can be thought of as a natural geographic portion of Canada that happens to be below the 45th north latitudinal parallel, which was arbitrarily determined to be the dividing line between Quebec and the colony of New York (which included the land which is now Vermont) in the 1760s. That line was formally established between the United States and Great Britain in the Treaty of Paris in 1783, at the end of the American Revolution. The boundary was reaffirmed at the end of the War of 1812. This invisible political boundary created a dilemma to those documenting the physiographic regions of the North American continent. Based on written evidence documenting deliberations of a committee of the American Association of Geographers (AAG), there was a long-standing debate over the treatment of the physiography of the St. Lawrence Valley. The difficulties could be traced to the decision of that group to use the term "province" as the second-level category in its classification system. Canada began using the designation province to refer to its political subdivisions in the mid-19th century. The AAG

Appalachian Highlands physiographic division shown by province

The Appalachian Highlands are one of eight physiographic divisions of the contiguous (counterminuos) United States. [87] The land area is linked together with the Appalachian Uplands of Canada to make up the Appalachian Mountains. Therefore, from a geographic standpoint, the Appalachian Highlands is not a synonym for the term Appalachian Mountains. The Highlands includes seven physiographic provinces, which is the second level in the physiographic classification system in the United States. At the next level of physiographic classification, called section/subsection, there are 20 unique land areas, (with one of the provinces having no sections). [bq]

This article focuses on identifying the areas geographically, and directing the reader to the related articles to learn about the specific physiographic elements of each separate land area.

The diversity of the Appalachian Highlands physiographic division is notable. The academic article underlying the concept was a five page paper authored by Nevin N. Fenneman in 1918 reporting the results of a committee of the American Association of Geographers that was tasked with clarifying geographical classification in the United States [88]That paper groups the seven provinces together under the Appalachian Highlands division level, but Fenneman's subsequent volume on the physiography of the eastern United States treats the Highlands's provinces separately by chapter. [89] As an introduction to the first province of the Highland, Fenneman says "(l)ike other physiographic divisions, this one takes its name from its most prominent feature; it is therefore designated as a highland, but it is by no means all high." [90] Fenneman goes on to say that "(s)o far as this extensive region has unity, it is found in the reseults of repeated uplifts, involving for the most part greater altitude and stronger relief than that of adjacent regions."


Adirondack province

[edit]
Adirondack province of the Appalachian Highlands physiographic division.

The Adirondack Mountains are a circular dome of mountains in Northeastern New York about 160 miles wide with more than 100 peaks, at least 40 that are over 4,000 feet tall. There are over 200 named lakes, with the number of smaller lakes, ponds, and other bodies of water reaching over 3,000. The region has over 1,200 miles of river. [91] The current relief owes much to glaciation. Among the named lakes around the mountains, are Lake George, Lake Placid, and Lake Tear of the Clouds (which is the source of the Hudson River). The Adirondack High Peaks are a list of 46 mountains in the Adirondacks that are above or close to 4,000 feet in elevation. The list was created when it was believed that all 46 peaks were at least 4,000 feet tall. However, later surveys showed that four of the peaks are actually lower than 4,000 feet. One 4,000 foot peak was also not included in the original list. The tallest peak is Mount Marcy, which is the highest point in New York at 5,344 feet (1,629 m). Although the mountains are formed from ancient rocks more than 1 billion years old, geologically, the 160-mile wide dome area (called a massif), is relatively new. Because of this, the Adirondacks have been referred to as "new mountains from old rocks." It is theorized that there is a "hotspot" beneath the region, which causes continued uplift at the rate of 1.5-3 cm annually.

Appalachian Plateau province

[edit]

The Appalachian Plateau physiographic province is a large, dissected plateau region in the eastern United States. It extends from New York southwest to Alabama. It runs parallel to Lake Erie on the northwest, but does not include the land adjacent to the Great Lakes. The plateau is composed of sedimentary rocks, including sandstones, conglomerates, and shales, that were deposited during the late Paleozoic Era. These rocks are generally flat-lying, but have been dissected by streams to form a rugged and mountainous terrain. In addition to these sedimentary rocks, beds of coal are locally significant throughout the Appalachian Plateaus, making this area the heart of the American coal industry. [92]

The Appalachian Plateau is divided into several physiographic sections:

Appalachian Plateau province of Appalachian physiographic division

The Mohawk Plateau is located in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. It is characterized by its low relief and rolling hills.

The Kanawha province contains most of West Virginia, southeastern Ohio, southwestern Pennsylvania, and northeastern Kentucky. The province is named after the Kanawha River, a tributary of the Ohio River.

The Southern New York provinces begins west of Albany, the south of Buffalo, and runs parallel, but not to the edge of, Lake Erie. It stays south of Cleveland and takes in the northeastern portion of Ohio.

The Catskill Mountains are located in southeastern New York and are known for their scenic beauty and waterfalls.

The Allegheny Mountains are located in central Pennsylvania and West Virginia and are the highest mountains in the Appalachian Plateau.

The Cumberland Plateau is located in southeastern Kentucky and Tennessee and is characterized by its gently rolling hills and dissected valleys.

The Cumberland Mountains are located in central Alabama and are the southernmost mountains in the Appalachian Plateau.

Blue Ridge province

[edit]
Blue Ridge province within the larger Appalachian Highlands physiographic division.

The Blue Ridge province is a physiographic province of the larger Appalachian Highlands physiographic division. This province is about 580 miles long and consists of northern and southern physiographic sections, which divides near the Roanoke River gap. The northern section runs along a narrow ridge from just south of Harrisburg, PA. The southern section is a plateau area that stretches to northern Georgia, with the southernmost point near Amicalola Mountain in Dawsonville, Georgia with the westernmost section being near Cohutta Mountain in Murray County, GA. The Blue Ridge Mountains are named for their distinctive blue haze, which is caused by the presence of atmospheric pollutants and water vapor. The mountains are made of highly deformed metamorphic rocks of largely Precambrian ages (>541 million years). These include schists, gneisses, slates, and quartzites, and are extensively intruded by igneous bodies. The Blue Ridge Mountains contain the highest mountains in eastern North America south of Baffin Island. The highest peak in the Blue Ridge is Mt. Mitchell in North Carolina at 6,684 feet.

Piedmont province

[edit]
Piedmont province within the Appalachian Highlands physiographic division.

The Piedmont province is a physiographic province of the larger Appalachian Mountains range. It is located in the eastern United States and stretches about 900 miles from New York to Alabama. The province starts in Rockland County, New York near South Mountain on the west side of the Hudson River.

The eastern border of the Piedmont runs along a fall line, the point at which rivers traditionally drop rapidly from harder metamorphic rocks to softer sedimentary rocks. [93] Because the fall line is the spot where rivers become unnavigable, port cities typically have sprung up where rivers cross this boundary, the east side of the Piedmont runs along the Hudson, parallel to Manhattan, NY through New Jersey, then along a line near the cities of Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Richmond, VA, Raleigh, NC, Columbia, SC, Augusta, GA, Macon, GA, and Montgomery, AL. (Richmond, and Raleigh are the only cities from this list that are within the boundaries of the Piedmont). The west side of the Piedmont runs through lesser populated areas, from south of Harrisburg, PA to Lake Martin in Elmore County, Alabama.

There are two sections of the Piedmont. The primary portion is called the Uplands section. There are two unconnected sections of the province called the lowlands. These areas are in the New York City and Harrisburg, PA areas.

The Piedmont is characterized by rolling hills and valleys that are underlain by crystalline metamorphic rocks. The Piedmont is a region of great geological diversity. It is underlain by a variety of rocks that range in age from Precambrian to Cenozoic. The oldest rocks in the Piedmont are gneisses and schists that formed more than a billion years ago during the Grenville orogeny. These rocks were later intruded by granites and other igneous rocks during the Paleozoic era. During the Mesozoic era, the Piedmont was covered by shallow seas that deposited layers of sandstone, shale, and limestone. These sedimentary rocks were later deformed and uplifted during the Cenozoic era.

The Piedmont is also home to several important mineral resources. The region has long been known for its deposits of gold, which were mined extensively during the 19th century. Other important minerals found in the Piedmont include copper, iron, mica, and granite.

New England province

[edit]
Five sections of the New England province of the Appalachian Highlands physiographic division.

The New England province is a physiographic province of the larger Appalachian Highlands division of the United States. It includes five subdivisions: the New England Uplands, New England Seaboard Lowland, Green Mountain, White Mountain, and Taconic.

  • The New England Uplands is the area runs from the northernmost point in Maine to the area south of Reading, PA, excluding other notable physiographic features found in the other four sections.
  • The White Mountain section starts in the area around Traveler Mountain and rounds west to the Maine/Canadian border. The namesake White Mountains are on the southern border of the section.
  • The Green Mountain section is in Vermont from the Canadian border west of Montpelier south to the Hoosac Mountain Range.
  • The Taconic section contains part of the Taconic Mountain range west of the Green Mountains and east of Albany, NY.

Much of the New England province’s bedrock aquifers are in consolidated rocks of sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic origin. Some of these aquifers, mainly in the western portion of Vermont, consist of carbonate rocks (primarily limestone, dolomite, and marble). These consolidated rocks yield water primarily from bedding planes, fractures, joints, and faults, rather than from intergranular pores.

Like the adjacent physiographic provinces, a large part of the New England province was peneplained during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, then uplifted, extensively dissected, and finally glaciated.

St. Lawrence province (Champlain section)

The St. Lawrence Valley is a physiographic province of the larger Appalachian division, containing only the Champlain physiographic section. The St. Lawrence Plain is a vast, flat plain, with elevations rarely exceeding 300m (1,000 feet) in Vermont and New York. This area was originally a forest-wetland complex, although very little of the forest remains today. The province abuts the eastern edge of the St. Lawrence River in New York along the Canadian border and contains most of Lake Champlain in Vermont and New York. Most of the northern border of the St. Lawrence Valley province is adjacent to a physiographic division in Canada that is not part of the Appalachian Mountains in that country. Canada considers all land of the St. Lawrence Valley to be part of the Central Lowlands. The part of the St. Lawrence Valley province that abuts the Appalachian Uplands of Canada meets the Eastern Quebec Uplands.

Valley and Ridge province

[edit]
Valley and Ridge province of the Appalachian Highlands physiographic division. To the north is the Hudson section, then the central section, and to the south the Tennesee section.

The Valley and Ridge province is a physiographic province of the larger Appalachian division, located in the eastern United States. It is bordered on the east by the Blue Ridge and Piedmont provinces and on the west by the Appalachian Plateau. There are three sections of the province, the Hudson section, the Central section, and the Tennessee section.

  • The Central section runs through New York, south of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, then through Virginia and West Virginia and ends on the border of Burkes Garden, VA in Tazewell County, VA.

The province is a series of northeast-southwest trending synclines and anticlines composed of Early Paleozoic sedimentary rocks. Limestones and shales are more susceptible to erosion and make up much of the valleys, whereas more resistant sandstones and conglomerates form the ridges.

The Valley and Ridge province extends for nearly 1,200 miles (1,930 km) from the St. Lawrence Valley in upstate New York to the Coastal Plain of central Alabama. Its width varies from 14 to 80 miles (23 to 130 km). The area is home to many valuable resources, both economic and geoheritage. Vast beds of anthracite coal exist in Pennsylvania and are mined at depths up to 600 m (2,000 ft). Iron and Zinc are also produced in the Valley and Ridge province, mined from the minerals hematite (iron) and sphalerite (zinc).

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ All-star teams were not broken down by offense and defense at the time
  2. ^ 2023 was fourth straight title since 2020 season not held due to COVID-19
  3. ^ 2022 was fourth straight title since 2020 season not held due to COVID-19
  4. ^ Co-champion since season ended before finals could be played due to COVID-19
  5. ^ sortable to see which games are still to be played in a given season
  6. ^ Most-played rivalry within the Ivy League.
  7. ^ The NCAA incorrectly lists the record as 78–60–8 in its 2020 FCS record book
  8. ^ Most-played rivalry within the Big Ten Conference.
  9. ^ Became the longest uninterrupted series in FBS history in 2012 – continuous since 1907 – supplanting the Kansas–Nebraska series.
  10. ^ If "uninterrupted" is interpreted as having been played in every calendar year, this became the longest uninterrupted series in all college football history in 2020 – continuous since 1907 – supplanting the Lafayette–Lehigh series. However, the Lafayette–Lehigh series has been played in each football season since 1897, with both schools' home conference of the Patriot League having moved its fall 2020 season to spring 2021.
  11. ^ Next game Nov 27, 2021.
  12. ^ a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z aa Can potentially be played twice in one season, with rematch in the respective conference championship game.
  13. ^ Most-played rivalry within the Southeastern Conference.
  14. ^ Most-played rivalry within the Atlantic Coast Conference.
  15. ^ Disputed series record: North Carolina forfeited their win in 1956 (or 1957) but there was no NCAA sanction.
  16. ^ a b c d e f g h i j k l m n Formerly an in-conference rivalry.
  17. ^ Most-played intra-state rivalry.
  18. ^ Most-played rivalry that is currently non-conference.
  19. ^ Most-played rivalry between FBS teams outside the Power Five conferences.
  20. ^ Northwest Championship also involves Washington and Washington State.
  21. ^ Most-played rivalry within the Pac-12 Conference.
  22. ^ Since 2014, this is the only "protected" cross-division rivalry in the Big Ten.
  23. ^ Montana vacated its last five wins of the 2011 season due to NCAA violations. This included a regular season win over Montana State.
  24. ^ Most-played rivalry within the Big 12 Conference.
  25. ^ Disputed series record: Kansas State claims Kansas leads the series lead 63–51–5, based on a game that the Big Eight conference ruled Kansas had to vacate in 1980. Kansas claims a very narrow interpretation of NCAA statistical guidelines that don't reference games that conference committees vacate. The NCAA did not act on the 1980 vacation.
  26. ^ Kansas forfeited 1960 win.
  27. ^ Mississippi State forfeited 1976 and 1977 games, which by NCAA guidelines are changed to Ole Miss wins. This is different than vacated games, which are only removed from the offending team's win totals. In this series, there are both forfeits and vacations, which makes the different treatment particularly apparent.
  28. ^ Ole Miss vacated 2012 and 2014 wins against Mississippi State which are removed from its win totals, but not added to Mississippi State's win totals.
  29. ^ Ohio State vacated all of its wins during the 2010 season due to NCAA violations. This included a win over Michigan.
  30. ^ Some sources claim that Oklahoma forfeited the 1972 game. OU Forfeit 8 games in 1972 This is not included in the NCAA source.
  31. ^ Disputed series record: Vanderbilt records show that Tennessee has 76–33–5 series lead due, including Vanderbilt's 1918 victory. Tennessee records do not count games played in 1918 since the team was "unofficial [team] formed from Army West Point recruits and students. " This list entry accepts the Vanderbilt contention given the unusual circumstances that all college football teams faced in 1918 when the War Department took over training for many college students.
  32. ^ LSU vacated wins in 2012, 2013 and 2015
  33. ^ Mississippi State forfeited games to LSU in 1975 and 1976. This was in the era when wins were added to LSU and losses added to Mississippi State.
  34. ^ Tobacco Road also involves Duke and North Carolina.
  35. ^ Northwest Championship also involves Oregon State and Washington State.
  36. ^ Most-played rivalry within the Mountain West Conference.
  37. ^ Most-played conference rivalry between FBS teams outside the Power Five conferences.
  38. ^ Colorado State does treats the 1899 game, which it later forfeited after a 12-0 victory, like a vacated game, and removes one victory from its win column, while not increasing the number of wins it credits to Wyoming.
  39. ^ It is possible that the two teams play a second game in the NCAA playoffs. This happened in the 2022-23 season when South Dakota State beat North Dakota State in the FBS national championship game and during the regular season.
  40. ^ Northwest Championship also involves Oregon and Oregon State.
  41. ^ Baylor forfeited their tied game in 1910, giving a win to Texas.
  42. ^ Baylor media guide has mistake in 2023 showing the overall record as 79-29-4 at the top of the series record, but correctly showing the breakdown of the record at Waco and Austin adding to 80-28-4.
  43. ^ Tobacco Road also involves Duke and Wake Forest
  44. ^ 2013 win by Ole Miss vacated and 2012 and 2014 wins by LSU vacated.
  45. ^ LSU media guide differs from Ole Miss. Its guide does not remove the loss from the 2013 game when Ole Miss had to vacate its win. This is consistent with NCAA policy on vacated games since the losing team's record is unaffected by vacated wins.
  46. ^ Beehive Boot also involves BYU
  47. ^ Tobacco Road also involves Duke and NC State
  48. ^ Tobacco Road also involves NC State and Wake Forest
  49. ^ North Carolina vacated their wins in the 2008 and 2009 due to the 2010 football scandal.[47]
  50. ^ Both schools claim to have won their 1889 game by forfeit, but most neutral recordkeepers list a win for North Carolina. Duke media information still counts the game as a win.
  51. ^ California forfeited their 1999 win and USC vacated their 2005 win, both of which were due to ineligible players.
  52. ^ Northwest Championship also involves Oregon and Washington.
  53. ^ Alabama vacated the game in 2005, which results in removal of the game from Alabama's win column, but not an added win for Mississippi State.[52]
  54. ^ Alabama forfeited a game in 1993 that officially results in a Mississippi State win instead of an Alabama loss.[53]
  55. ^ Mississippi State correctly has an extra loss in its "versus all opponents" section compared to the record shown in this list. A team is not supposed to change its record when an opposing team vacates a game, unlike when it forfeits a game.
  56. ^ Northwest Championship also involves Oregon and Washington State.
  57. ^ West Virginia and Pittsburgh are scheduled for a 4-game series from 2022–2025 [61]
  58. ^ Alabama vacated its 2005 win against Tennessee, meaning a win is deducted from Alabama total. Alabama also forfeited its 1993 tie, which changes that game from a tie to a win for Tennessee.
  59. ^ The schools differ on the series record. Iowa State's media guide has a 1907 victory over Nebraska on 11/2/1907, but the Chicago Tribute and Des Moines Register both cite a 10-9 Nebraska victory.[67][68]
  60. ^ Minnesota and Michigan are in different divisions of the Big 10. Next game scheduled for 2023.
  61. ^ None Scheduled
  62. ^ Virginia and Virginia Tech did not play in 2022 due to a deadly shooting of three UVA players near the end of the season. The game was cancelled, not forfeited.
  63. ^ Ohio State vacated all of its wins during the 2010 season due to NCAA violations. This included a win over Illinois.
  64. ^ Ohio State and Illinois are in different divisions of the Big 10. Next game scheduled for 2024.
  65. ^ Tobacco Road also involves North Carolina and NC State.
  66. ^ USC vacated their 2005 win after the Reggie Bush scandal.
  67. ^ Northwest Championship also involves Oregon State and Washington.
  68. ^ The 1978 and 1979 games were both forfeited by Oregon, giving two wins for Washington State.
  69. ^ A physiographic region has a distinct type of landscape, landforms, rock type, and evolutionary history. The advantage of using physiographic regions in the exploration of geography is that all land areas are included. The borders do not overlap, and there are no undefined land areas. It is possible to make a map of any country using the coordinates in the classifications.
