Early Era of College Football

Three other things from the Early Era of College Football besides the Cumberland-Georgia Tech football game:

1)  From 1907 through 1917, Washington played 63 consecutive games without losing

2)  Speaking of consecutive games, Yale held opponents scoreless from 1890 to 1893 - 35 consecutive games

3) Another future Ivy League school, Harvard, banned football for 11 years from 1860 to 1871 because school officials felt that the game was too rough.  They were right - there were an estimated 18 football fatalities in just 1905!
