College Football Countdown Trivia: What is the Highest-Scoring Game in FBS History?

HERO Sports is counting down the 100 days until the kickoff of the 2018 college football season on Saturday, Aug. 25, with daily trivia. Each day, from May 17 through Aug. 24, we'll publish one college football trivia question.

What is the highest-scoring game in FBS history?

The answer includes overtime games. As usual, the photo above means nothing. Graham Harrell and Texas Tech were not involved in the highest-scoring game in FBS history. 

Your hint: Just like our question a few days ago, it happened very recently.

Answer

Western Michigan 71, Buffalo 68 (2017)

Western Michigan and Buffalo's seven-overtime game (tied for the most in FBS history) produced 139 total points, breaking the previous record of 137 points set by Pittsburgh (76) and Syracuse (61) in a non-overtime game in 2016. 

Western Michigan and Buffalo were tied at 31-31 at the end of regulation, meaning they both scored more points in the seven overtimes than in regulation. They combined for 1,328 yards of total offense and 63 first downs.
