FAMU separated itself from the pack in the 1950s and 60s when it won fourteen consecutive titles from 1952 through 1965. That followed six-season streak from 1945 to 1950. From 1942 through 1969 the only teams to take the title away were 1944 Tuskegee, 1951 Morris Brown and 1966 Alabama A&M, giving FAMU 25 titles in 28 seasons, a mark that will likely never be touched in HBCU history.
