Notes

  1. Alliant International University was formed in 2001 via the merger of United States International University (USIU) and California School of Professional Psychology. USIU had been known as California Western University (Cal Western) from 1952 to 1967.
  2. cfbdatawarehouse.com incorrectly lists two additional 1957 games, against Antelope Valley College and Cerritos College. These were played by Riverside Junior College, not UC Riverside, and are therefore not included here.
