I remember seeing footage of the William Campbell (14-0) team of 2002 when they played Appy (12-2) and it was just insane at how good they were. Their key running back (Cedric Peerman) could just get the ball and run anywhere he wanted and it usually took no less than 3 guys to take him down each and every play, regardless of where he ran or how he did so.
I was definitely shocked at how good they were, and after seeing them, the 70-0 score definitely didn't seem near as far fetched at first. Hell, when I first saw the final score on Highlights Tonight, I almost passed out because I couldn't believe it, especially after how Appalachia dismantled Bath Co. the week before the 'big game.' I actually thought they had a chance to win it all .. boy was I ever wrong.
