The final hole was a tie, nobody won.

The relevance of your post to Animal House is, at best, questionable.

Comedies such as these, employing young, rebellious, happy-go-lucky characters as protagonists, and mean-spirited, older, authoritarian agelasts as antagonists, typically confound logic where the eventual triumph of the easy-to-spot protagonist(s) is expected, and even anticipated by the audience. This is as true for the comedy film 'Caddyshack' as it is for the comedy film 'Animal House', and in fact, is a principle of comic drama going back to the Roman Republic, never mind the late 20th century. Early Roman comedies featuring a contest of some sort often employed a stock character such as a God or some kind of Famous Person, who would enter the stage and simply announce the victor, often against what was actually presented (for comedic effect), but just as often according to what was presented, as a further piece of comedy to the running comedy of the audience typically having the play's plot spoon-fed to them. This type of comedy can be daunting and overly subtle for the uninitiated. You might do well to study the elements of stage comedy sometime before seeing a similar film in the future, such as 'Revenge Of The One-Legged Postmen', or 'Ernest Donates A Kidney'.
