Football Archaeology of Harvard's Rose Bowl Appearance in 1936
Harvard played Oregon in the 1920 Rose Bowl and was not expecting an invitation to play in the 1936 game. After all, the Crimson had won three and lost six that season, beating only Springfield, Brown, and New Hampshire. They played Yale close but failed to score on Holy Cross, Army, and Princeton, so an invitation to spend the holidays in Pasadena came as a surprise. — www.footballarchaeology.com
The Harvard Crimson played the Oregon Ducks in the 1936 Rose Bowl Game, but their invitation was a bit a surprise by all, including the Crimson. Timothy P. Brwon shares this remarkable story of Harvardf's only post-season football game to date.
