The Previous Gopher Squad to win 11 or More Games

[GoForGold]

The 1904 team won 13 games, so I guess that's the next millstone, to match or top that.

To be Honest. Didn't they play high school teams.

1904 was a great team

First row far right is Bobby Marshall, the first African-American to play football in the conference that evolved in to the Big 10.

Ski-U-Mah!

Yes, but they were really good HS teams.

I bet not a one of those guys weighed over 200 lbs.

He also spotted him a 2 year head start while he was winning 13 games in a year at Western Michigan.

It was a different game and time then. Deaths happened when playing. The play was physically concentrated before the forward pass, and there was not as big a physical difference between HS and college players as we see today. Most teams played as many games as they could schedule, but their core conference part of the schedule was very demanding and solid.
