The Dolphins defeated the Redskins 14-7 in Superbowl VII to end their undefeated season with a record of 17-0. Ironically, if not for an interception thrown by their kicker Garo Yepremian, after a blocked field goal with minutes remaining, the Dolphins would have ended their season with a 17-0 victory to end 17 and 0. As it turned out the interception was returned for the Redskins only touchdown, thus avoiding the only Super Bowl shut out. Jake Scott was the MVP.
Yes, that's why it was called an "UNDEFEATED" season.... :)
