1912 college football season information


The 1912 college football season was the first season of the modern era of college football, as the NCAA implemented changes to increase scoring:[1]

  • Teams were given 4 downs instead of 3 downs to gain ten yards
  • The value of a touchdown was increased from 5 points to 6 points
  • The length of the playing field was reduced from 110 yards to 100 yards, and end zones of ten yards were added
  • Kickoff was made from the 40 yard line rather than at midfield.
