Notable
Achievements: |

The Vulcans had the World Football League's best record (9-3) at the
time of the league's folding and were considered by most to be champions of the 1975
season. To further solidify this claim, they had also beaten the team with the second best
record, the Memphis Southmen, twice in back-to-back games immediately prior to the league
folding. |
