REPORT

Condores UNAM (Universidad Nacional Autonoma de México) were the inaugural champions of the new Conferencia Diez Grandes winning 41-16 in the Finale versus Borregos Salvajes ITESM-Monterrey (ITESM-Monterrey White Rams). The Condores had gone through the regular season with a perfect 9-0 record.

The 1992 season saw ITESM-Monterrey shocked in the Semi-Finals 3-33 by Aguilas Blancas IPN (Instituto Politecnico Nuevo) as the White Eagles went on to defeat Centinelas IGP 17-13 in the Finale.

Borregos ITESM-Monterrey regained the title in 1993 with a 20-13 victory over Aguilas Blancas IPN in the Finale after topping the regular season standings for the third year in succession.

The Rams repeated in 1994, although only after being knocked off the top of the standings by Aztecas UDLA (Puebla) who were defeated by the Rams 17-10 in the Finale.

Aztecas got revenge in 1995, however, defeating ITESM-Monterrey 7-6 in a close Semi-Final before triumphing 43-13 over Condores UNAM in the Finale. Condores had defeated Aguilas Blancas IPN, the Regular Season Champions, 22-19 in the Semi-Finals.

About ONEFA Liga Mayor Conferencia de los 10 Grandes

The ONEFA College Football Championship is one of the highlights of the Mexican American Football season, and was considered the National Championship from 1933 until recently, with challengers both the breakaway CONADEIP College League (2013 onwards) and the Liga Football Americano Profesional (LFA Mexico), a Major Pro League (2016 onwards).

There are a number of different eras in the ONEFA Championship, with UNAM Pumas and Condores UNAM the most successful teams. The Conferencia Diez Grandes (Big 10 Conference) was established in 1991, a level about the Conferencia Nacional (National Conference). It lasted until 2000 when the National Conference was merged with the Big 10 and divided into three regional Conferences with Quarter-Finals to Final Playoffs.
