Damn pussies from Michigan spoiled a perfect season by not leaving the Big House and forcing the Dores to go to Ann Arbor. 8 games in Ann Arbor and only 3 in Nashville. Dores played Michigan to a 0-0 tie in Nashville in 1922 and they have not been back since, more like chickens than wolverines. Played 3 times after that and all in Ann Arbor, so f*ck them!

Man if a time machine ever gets invented one of the things I would want to do is go back and watch a football game around the turn of the century. Watching a game in the Big House in 1906 would be something to see..

quote:
By 1907, the Carlisle Indians were the most dynamic team in college football. They had pioneered the forward pass, the overhand spiral and other trick plays that frustrated their opponents. The Carlisle Indians have been characterized as the “team that invented football."
quote:
On November 9, 1912, Carlisle was to meet the U.S. Military Academy in a game at West Point, New York, between two of the top teams in the country. Pop Warner spoke to his team: “Your fathers and your grandfathers,” Warner began, “are the ones who fought their fathers. These men playing against you today are soldiers. They are the Long Knives. You are Indians. Tonight, we will know if you are warriors.”
That dramatic evening Carlisle routed Army 27-6. That game, played just 22 years after the last Army battle with the Lakota/Sioux at Wounded Knee, not only featured Jim Thorpe, but nine future generals including a linebacker named Dwight D. Eisenhower.
