Lol...81 against Jackson Barracks, 55 against Rhodes, 89 against Baylor...
Nice to see that 100 years later Auburn was still carrying on the tradition of playing games with under 12 total points scored.

LSU's Defense only gave up 3 points with 4 Safties.
Scoring was different back then.

I always believed LSU should lay claim to the national title for 1908.

You had to tromp through horse shite to get to the stadium back then.

The points given up by the 1908 team:
5 on a 105 yard touchdown off a fumble recovery in the Jackson Barrcks game.
4 on a field goal to Arkansas
2 on a safety to Auburn, when a fan knocked Doc Fenton out just after he recovered a block punt.

Wasn't the field longer back then?

Aggy says their 1917 and 1919 teams that were not scored upon are better. Just ask them.

I'm a younger football fan... I have no clue. All these rule changes are blowing my mind

The football field of 1908 was 110 yards, mid field was the 55 yard line.
