You aren't comparing offenses and defenses played back then to today, are you?
That's like saying passing defenses in 1912 were much better because they gave up fewer passing yards. If you check, the first forward pass was done in....1913.
I mean, do you think it is a fair comparison to compare the 1939 Vols to todays defenses?

While I realize modern day football is much different (and more competitive and difficult) than old football. Yall trying to d*ck measure using old school records can just sit down.
Let me introduce you to the 1919 Texas A&M football team. 10-0, undefeated AND unscored upon. 275 points for, 0 against for the season. So yall can go back to the kiddie table now.
1919 A&M Statistics
Again, its not to brag or compare ourselves to modern football. Just to put yall trying to brag on 50+ year old records in place. Oh, and we also did it in 1917 going 8-0 and unscored upon.
