Discrepancies with Official NCAA Rulebook

The East Carolina Pirates claimed a scoring streak of 322 games scoring from 1997 through to 2023 but is not listed in the official NCAA records. This would place their streak at 8 on the all-time list. This streak ended on November 18, 2023 when Navy shutout the Pirates 10-0.
The USC Trojans claim an active streak of 318 games scoring dating back to 1997 as of the end of the 2023 season but is not listed on the official NCAA records. This would place their streak at 8 on the all-time list.
The Louisville Cardinals claim an active streak of 301 games scoring dating back to 2000 as of the end of the 2023 season but is not listed on the official NCAA records. This would place their streak at 12 on the all-time list.
The official NCAA record book claims a 233 game scoring streak for the Nebraska Cornhuskers from 1974 through to 1991 to place the Huskers tied for 24 on the list. However, Nebraska's streak during those years was 220 games, and would not be sufficient to be in this top 25.
