Reddit published the 2016 Fulmer Cup Awards for Criminal Achievements in D1 Football [LINK]:

The Fulmer Cup is a parody award that tracks the criminal achievements of various college football programs during the offseason and declares a "winner". It is open to all Division 1 football programs (FBS & FCS), and points are awarded based on the level of crime (more details below). The Fulmer Cup season starts the minute the national title game is finished and ends the minute of the FBS kickoff, this year on August 26.

Here are the results by team and by Conference:

While Colorado surprised the field by taking the individual team award (primarily fueled by Nathaniel Robbins receiving 8 felonies and 7 misdemeanors in one night), the SEC ran away with the conference award by managing to get four teams in the top ten and an overall score 5x higher than the Big Ten conference's score.

Alabama had a chance to pull off the Switzer Sweep, which they define by getting a National Championship, pulling in a top recruiting class, and winning The Fulmer Cup all in one calendar year, but missed.
