FIRST COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAME IN 1869
Rutgers-Princeton football game of 1869, by William Boyd.
On November 6, 1869, Rutgers beat Princeton, 6-4, in the first
college football game. The game, played with a soccer ball
before roughly 100 fans in New Brunswick, New Jersey,
resembles rugby instead of today’s football.
This is a group portrait of the Rutgers College 1891
football team, New Brunswick, New Jersey.
