  • Mcafee Takes a Handoff from Sid Luckman (1947)
    by Jim Ridgeway George McAfee takes a handoff from Sid Luckman (1947). Ironton, a small city in Southern Ohio, is known throughout the state for its high school football program. Coach Bob Lutz, head coach at Ironton High School since 1972, has won more football games than any coach in Ohio high school history. Ironton High School has been a regular in the state football playoffs since the tournament’s inception in 1972, with the school winning state titles in 1979 and 1989. Long before the hiring of Bob Lutz and the outstanding title teams of 1979 and 1989, Ironton High School fielded what might have been the greatest gridiron squad in school history. This nearly-forgotten Tiger squad was coached by a man who would become an assistant coach with the Cleveland Browns, general manager of the Buffalo Bills and the second director of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The squad featured three brothers, two of which would become NFL players, in its starting eleven. One of the brothers would earn All-Ohio, All-American and All-Pro honors before his enshrinement in Canton, Ohio. This story is a tribute to the greatest player in Ironton High School football history, his family, his high school coach and the 1935 Ironton High School gridiron squad. This year marks the 75th anniversary of the undefeated and untied Ironton High School football team featuring three players with the last name of McAfee. It was Ironton High School’s first perfect football season, and the school would not see another such gridiron season until 1978.

GRID UPSETS ON COAST BRING IN NEW TITLEHOLDER California Hurled from Throne by Washington—First in Six Years SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 29.—(AP)—Football on far western gridirons in 1925 left a wake of startling upsets climaxed in the crowning of a new Pacific Coast Conference champion for the first time in six years. The seasonal clashes saw the University of California hurled from the throne. To the University of Washington went the honor of terminating the reign of the Golden Bear. By a coincidence, Washington was the last team to defeat California before it started on its long rule of coast football in 1919 the Huskies won 7 to 0. And in November 14, 1925, the northerners repeated with a seven to nothing score. In winning ten of its eleven games this season, Washington rolled up 459 points to a total of 399 for its opponents. One game ended in a six to six tie. It was the contest with the University of Nebraska.

    Chapter One {1869-1949} 1869 – “The FIRST College Football game” Princeton vs Rutgers - College Field - New Brunswick, New Jersey {Rutgers 6 Princeton 4} The 1869 New Jersey vs. Rutgers football game was between the College of New Jersey (now the Princeton Tigers) and the Rutgers Queensmen played on November 6, 1869. The game's rules were based on the London Football Association's early set of rules, which had recently become the most popular set of rules for the game of football at the time. The game, along with the schism between the FA's rules and the rules of the Rugby Football Union, set in motion the events which would lead to the development of modern American football during the following decades. LLC Bible, Painting by Arnold Friberg The game is considered to have been the first American football game ever played. The game was played in front of approximately 100 spectators. Rutgers won the game 6–4. The game took place at CollegeFootball Field (now the site of the College Avenue Gymnasium at Rutgers University) in New Brunswick, New Jersey. In what might be considered a beginning to college football rivalries, immediately after Rutgers won this game, Princeton's players were literally run out of town by the winning Rutgers students. The Princeton students reportedly jumped in their carriages and quickly made the 20-mile trip back to their campus. 1911- The Dobie “Bunk Play” Washington at Oregon - Multnomah Field - Portland, Oregon {Washington 29 Oregon 3} Gilmour Dobie was a legendary coach for the University of Washington football team.

Adams III and Rebekah Keenon Auburn University, Auburn, Alabama 36849, United States of America Abstract: This paper recalls the 1942 Rose Bowl game, which was relocated from its traditional site at Pasadena, California, to Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. The Tournament of Roses nearly cancelled the game after a government request to avoid large crowds on the West Coast, in light of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Duke, originally selected as the visiting team to play Pacific Coast Conference champion Oregon State University, resolved the dilemma by offering to stage the game at its campus stadium. Duke Stadium had a capacity of only 35,000, much smaller than the Rose Bowl stadium, and 20,000 temporary seats from nearby University of North Carolina and North Carolina State University were added to accommodate fans. On the strength of a 13-point third quarter, Oregon State upset undefeated Duke, 20-16, in the 28th Rose Bowl game. The game returned to Pasadena the following year. With Allied victory at the Battle of Midway and stabilization of the Pacific Theater of war, the West Coast was considered secure enough to host large events. The move of the 1942 Rose Bowl was the first of many impacts on sport generally and college football in particular caused by World War II. With male enrollment reduced drastically, many colleges and universities did not field a football team for one or more seasons during the war.

    USC FOOTBALL: 11 NATIONAL TITLES, 33 BOWL VICTORIES USC: AMERICA’S BOWL TEAM USC has a remarkable record in bowl games. Entering the 2016 bowl season, the Trojans have the nation’s seventh highest bowl winning percentage (.660) among the 89 schools that have made at least 10 bowl appearances (behind Marshall’s .846, Utah’s .789, Miami of Ohio’s and San Jose State’s .700, Boise State’s .688 and Toledo’s .667). USC’s 33 bowl victories are second behind Alabama’s 36 for most in the nation (not including 1 win for both teams vacated due to NCAA penalty; original record: 34 for USC, 37 for Alabama). Troy’s 50 bowl appearances are sixth most, behind Alabama (64), Texas (53), Nebraska (52), Tennessee (51) and Georgia (51) (not including 2 USC appearances and 1 Alabama appearance vacated due to NCAA penalty; original record: 52 for USC, 65 for Alabama). USC once won 9 consecutive bowl games (the 1923-30-32-33-39-40-44-45 Rose Bowls and 1924 Christmas Festival); only Florida State has won more in a row (11). USC’s overall post-season record is 33-17 (not including 1 win and 1 loss later vacated due to NCAA penalty; original record: 34-18). The Trojans were a bowl participant each year they were eligible from 1972 to 1990 (USC was banned from bowl participation in 1980-82-83). Troy has appeared in an unprecedented 32 Rose Bowls, where it has a 24-8 mark (.750) (not including 1 appearance and 1 loss later vacated due to NCAA penalty; original record: 33 Rose Bowls, 24-9, .718).
