Notes

Illinois 1914 Season

"Possibly the most dominant team in Illinois football history was the 1914 squad. The squad was only coach Robert Zuppke's second at Illinois and would be the first of four na­tional championship teams he would lead in his 29 years at Illinois. The Fighting Illini defense shut out four of its seven opponents, yielding only 22 points the entire 1914 season, and the averaged up an incredible 32 points per game, including a 51-0 shellacking of Indiana on Oct. 10. This team was so good that no one scored a point against them until Oct. 31, the fifth game of the seven-game season. The closest game of the year, two weeks later, wasn't very close at all, a 21-7 home decision over Chicago. Leading the way for Zuppke's troops was right halfback Bart Macomber. He led the team in scoring. Left guard Ralph Chapman was named to Walter Camp's first-team All-America squad, while left halfback Harold Pogue, the team's second-leading scorer, was named to Camp's second team." from fightingillini.com
