The 1899 New Hampshire football team[c] was an American football team that represented New Hampshire College of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts[d] during the 1899 college football season—the school became the University of New Hampshire in 1923. The team finished with a record of 3–3–1 or 4–2, per 1899 sources or modern sources, respectively.

Schedule

[edit]

Scoring during this era awarded five points for a touchdown, one point for a conversion kick (extra point), and five points for a field goal. Teams played in the one-platoon system and the forward pass was not yet legal. Games were played in two halves rather than four quarters.

Overall record (3–3–1) (4–2)

A December editorial in The New Hampshire College Monthly stated that the team's record was 3–3–1,[13] whereas College Football Data Warehouse and the University's media guide list a record of 4–2.[4][5]

Contemporary sources are clear that the Vermont game was played in Vermont;[13] modern sources list the site as Durham.

The October 21 game was the first meeting between the New Hampshire and Boston College football programs.[16] The November 4 game was the first meeting between the New Hampshire and Vermont football programs.[17]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ per the University's media guide; 1899 sources differ
  2. ^ The New Hampshire College Monthly did not publish a team photo, which for the prior five seasons had listed starting players and identified the team captain.
  3. ^ The school did not adopt the Wildcats nickname until February 1926;[1] before then, they were generally referred to as "the blue and white".
  4. ^ The school was often referred to as New Hampshire College or New Hampshire State College in newspapers of the era.
