    I love early American football history like this
    So in short Oberlin was leading but Michigan was driving and the ref allegedly blew the final whistle too early, so Michigan kept playing
    And the campus papers show it was a contemporary rather than well after the fact argument
    Reminds me of the 1925 NFL championship controversy (about whether a rematch counted or was a postseason exhibition)
    Until a few years ago in the NFL teams still had to attempt a conversion after a 4th quarter walkoff touchdown. Once Pats beat Bills that way, Buffalo didn't bother to defend the PAT, Vinatieri walks it in, the only nonkicking points of his career
    Heisman a non student playing reminds me of something from *association* football - one of the members of Oxford's 1874 FA Cup Final team was a chaplain and history lecturer not an undergrad

    I’m a big Michigan fan, but I can’t really believe we still claim this. Nevertheless, George Jewett is still a revered name at UM.

    I wonder which team Ohio State would have sided with in this disputed game? I also assume Michigan and Oberlin never agreed to a rematch!

    I just discovered your channel a few days ago and it is amazing. I’d love to see you expand your discussions into more perspective with the CFL and other leagues.

    Clarence Hemingway was the Yeos’ physiologist at this time leaving for medical school in 93, met the same fate as his son Ernest, also the hereditary prince of the Hawaiian islands is in your picture, after Fleet Walker left Oberlin for law school at Michigan he played football and baseball.

    1:26 - I did not know that Oberlin called their team "Ye-O-Men" before changing it (to the Yeomen) before seeing this. A remarkable game indeed! They had a few more in the 19 teens and twenties vs. Ohio State.

    It seems that Michigan and Oberlin played a another 7 times until 1903 with Michigan winning them all

    You might look at the 1905 Georgia-Florida game if you haven't. Georgia counts it and Florida doesn't

    The only word I have for this is "insane".

    Too bad I wasn't born yet in 1892. I could've started my "mild dislike" of Michigan almost a century early.

    Don’t recall what year by my uni is undefeated vs U Mich.
    Wesleyan University (CT)
    My classmate from Ann Arbor told me this the first month of school.

    Typical yes, remarkable no. Nothing has changed much , Alabama earns a trip to the playoff after the receiver slips his hand up under the Auburn cornerback's face mask, then pushes off for separation right in front of an umpire.. Crowd cheers, millions wrongfully exhange pockets.
    Just as the days of old, so shall it be in the end.

      Then why did the ncaa president say Michigan won fair and square in 2023?

    An interesting story. It would have been a bit comical if had been highlighted when Michigan got there thousandth victory given I suppose they are counting this as such. I also wonder if they train was leaving early or if the game was going long, I mean they had to have known what time the train leaves before scheduling the game.
