Peru State Football 1908-1911
Football Archaeology has run a handful of stories about football at normal and teachers’ colleges in recent months that covered: 1906 UW-Stevens Point 1907 Slippery Rock 1907 Eastern Illinois 1916 UW-River Falls 1950 Florence State (North Alabama) Each resulted from an RPPC or schedule that caused me to dig into the team’s story. Readers are fortunate today because I managed to string together RPPCs of the 1908, 1909, and 1910 teams from Nebraska State Normal. Most called it Peru Normal then — www.footballarchaeology.com
