The 1916 New Hampshire football team[a] was an American football team that represented New Hampshire College of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts[b] during the 1916 college football season—the school became the University of New Hampshire in 1923. Under second-year head coach Butch Cowell, the team finished with a record of 3–5–2.

Schedule

[edit]

During this era, teams played in the one-platoon system. Scoring values were consistent with the present day: six points for a touchdown, one point for a conversion kick (extra point), and three points for a field goal.[c]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ The school did not adopt the Wildcats nickname until February 1926;[2] before then, they were generally referred to as "the blue and white".
  2. ^ The school was often referred to as New Hampshire College or New Hampshire State College in newspapers of the era.
  3. ^ For additional detail, see Early history of American football#Scoring table.
  4. ^ College Football Data Warehouse lists the score as 25–0, but New Hampshire's media guide and a game recap in The New Hampshire both state 26–0.
