The first College Football Season was in 1869. Two games were played the Rutgers Queensmen played the Prinecton Tigers. They played twice. Rutgers won the first game 6-4, while Prinecton won the second game 8-0. Princeton is recognized as the National Champion for this season.

There have been 147 College Football Seasons. There were no games played in 1871 so hence there was no football season that year. The game and tradition of College Football quickly took off, by 1879 there were already 20 teams playing with some very familiar teams already participating such as the Michigan Wolverines and the Navy Midshipmen.
