Having attended (but graduate from) Centre, I can tell you that they still live in the glory of that one game.

To this day. It is everywhere in their promotional materials. I found it tiresome to relish a victory that occured (at the time) almost 60 years before.

Now, that said, it IS a great story. Just not one that needs to be front-and-centre (pun intended).
