When Chadron State completed a 76-73 victory over Abilene Christian on November 24, it marked the fifth time this year that the previous NCAA all-division record for combined points had been tied or topped. The previous all-division record of 136 was set in a College Division (now known as Division II) game between North Park and North Central (Ill.) in 1968. After a wild October and November of high-scoring games, the top five scoring games of all-time all occurred in 2007 and six of the top nine are from the current football season. Each of the four divisions (FBS, FCS, II and III) has had a new record established this season. Surprisingly, only three of the top nine games included overtime. Here are the top scoring games in all divisions:

Teams	Total Points	Division	Date
Chadron St. (76)-Abilene Christian (73) (3 ot)	149	II	Nov. 24, 2007
Hartwick (72)-Utica (70) (4 ot)	142	III	Nov. 10, 2007

Wow. 104 points by one team in 1968! Is that an all-division record by one team? Those are some crazy stats for 2007.
