Hardcore College Football History

Love College football? Love History?
Covering history of college football in a way that's rarely been done.

The idea that Teddy Roosevelt "saved" football is mostly myth.
If there was a man who actually saved football, it was Henry Mitchell MacCracken.
It's all here:

@VanAllenPlexico Egad, man.
The NCAA claims every selector in their books. Alabama 1942, 9-2 by Houlgate, seriously?
1913 Auburn, Southern football hadn't even gotten off the ground. d

@FreddyLA7 You need to ask about "snipe" hunting.

@Dameshek It was the Fort White Bronco on a low speed chase.

@jontweetssports It'd be the best story line.

I gotta tell you, watching the World Cup, the announcers tell you the ENTIRE history of the sport. They'll know it back until the beginning.
College football?
No.
We're very limited in our history. Maybe... the past 10 years?

@BadSportsRefs If we weren't talking about violence in this stupid league, we wouldn't be talking about it at all.

@TomMarsLaw Everybody's getting paid!
They've lost this since 1982. They knew since then.
They paid Mark Emmert how many millions to do nothing over all those years.

@On3 @FOS WHAT THE HELL.
Why would you do this to Mountain West anything?

[Hardcore College Football History @HardcoreCFBH]

@FearThePegasus @CollegeFBonX It's a little insane... some of these selectors are... well, kind of nutso.

@katsuxbt DUI driving accident around 24. Had back pain. Surgeon dude told me to fuse it. I was like "what the fuck is wrong with you" and he told me I was just going to be in pain for the rest of my life.
Yoga fixed it.
Screw those guys. Get another option.

On November 18, 1999, at 2:42 AM, a 59-foot stack of logs collapsed in College Station, killing 12 students and injuring 27 more. Eight days later, the University of Texas Longhorn Band marched onto Kyle Field carrying Texas A&M flags, and the most bitter rivalry in college football revealed its true nature.

@Genetics56 The Big Ten and SEC are not leaving the NCAA. They're not going to throw out every sport except football.
They will not get to compete in another other sport if they do this. It won't be allowed.
Football is not enough.

@Ibra_official this has been a fun broadcast

They were before the Big 10 in the "Western Conference". They were the biggest western school east of the Northeart - Princeton, Yale, Harvard, Penn.
Amos Alonzo Stagg was a giant among coaches. He was force to retire at 70 (1932) then their president basically broke the program.

Sammy Baugh/Davey O'Brian - both Heisman winners i the 1930s for TCU. Both proved that the passing game was a real weapon in the college ranks.

Sid Luckman - Columbia/NFL - changed the NFL permanently because of his T-formation passing skills.

Roger Staubaugh - Heisman, dragged Navy to 9-1 season and at a service academy.

Tommie Fraizer - Nebraska - maybe considered the last great option quarterback?
