Per ESPN:
Scoring defense: 5.4 PPG
Record: 4-3
As the father of the T-formation, Clark Shaughnessy would go on to become one of the sport's most influential offensive coaches at both the college and pro levels. But in 1912, he was an All-American leader of one of the sport's greatest defenses. Minnesota got outscored a combined 21-0 by brilliant Wisconsin and Chicago squads, but it outpaced four other major opponents by a combined 87-7.
