Rankings from AP Poll
The 1947 Springfield Gymnasts football team, sometimes also referred to as the Maroons,[1] was an American football team that represented the Springfield College in Springfield, Massachusetts, during the 1947 college football season.
In the final Litkenhous Ratings released in mid-December, Springfield was ranked at No. 189 out of 500 college football teams.[2]
In its second season under head coach Ossie Solem, the team compiled a 4–4 record and played its home games at Pratt Field in Springfield.
Solem had previously coached for three major football programs, Drake (1921–1931), Iowa (1932–1936), and Syracuse (1937–1945).[3] During Solem's tenure as head coach, the program scheduled games against regional powers like Yale and Connecticut and intersectional games against opponents like Wayne.
