Quite an exciting season! And the names---Four Horsemen, Grange, Nevers...some of the greatest ever.
Great stuff, really enjoyed it. The 20's was when college football really came of age, sea to shining sea!.
One note: ( 3:25 ) The Illinois coach was Bob Zuppke. "Ray" was the guy who succeeded him, Ray Eliot.
2:16: LOVE that you started in this way!
Thanks, I had to give some background on this season from almost 100 years ago
Fantastic channel, thank you

I am going to have to go back and slow watch all of these. I would love to see a video on whom you'd award the Heismen trophy to in the years before 1935.
I did a list sort of like this where I covered the top 10 best players from before WW2 so I reference a few. But easily I'd say that Jim Thorpe would have been the Heisman in 1911 and 1912. Ken Strong in 1928 and ofcourse Red Grange in 1923 and 1924
20:57: Illinois' game with Chicago the week before playing Minnesota was a very physical game. I read a later quote from Red Grange that " a battered, weary band of Illinois athletes traveled to Minneapolis to play Minnesota". Minnesota ran the ball to wear down the Illini defense and its huge defensive lineman beat up on Grange and his blockers. Grange ended up leaving the game in the third quarter with a shoulder injury.
Another masterclass in the history of the sport!
