Explanation:

[STC0017829]. The nation’s first intercollegiate football game was played on November 6, 1869, between Rutgers University and its neighbour The College of New Jersey (now Princeton). The two colleges, which were at the time only 20 miles apart, had a fierce rivalry. Nothing about the original Rutgers vs. Princeton game resembled modern college football. In contrast to today’s 11 players, there were 25 players on each team’s pitch. To score, a team would kick the ball into the goal of its opponent. Players could bat the ball about with their heads, limbs, and sides; carrying or throwing the ball was prohibited. Each game consisted of 10 minigames; when a team won one, they received one point, and the game moved on to the following round. Rutgers won with a 6-4 advantage.
