I really might buy that print. That is very cool.



Really interesting to see what the college football landscape looked like then. Some current national powers that aren't even listed, and several schools that don't sponsor football anymore. Look at all the schools in the Northeast and in Colorado!

Nickname - U. Mississippi is listed as "Ole Miss" not the Rebels.

Yep.

Sewanee, Pacific, Denver, Colorado SM, Greeley, Creighton, all the SoCon schools, Washington & Lee, George Washington, etc.

Also, this is random, but Logan, UT is where Provo should be and Provo is where Logan should be.

I'm thinking Ole Miss started using the name "Rebels" ~1936.
