GT Player Pos. Player Participation. George E. Allen who was elected to serve as Cumberland's football team student manager after first serving as the baseball team student manager therefore put together a team of 12—16 players, [a] most of whom were his fraternity brothers or law students, to travel to Atlanta as Cumberland's football team.
Another reason for Heisman's plan to run up the score was the practice among the sportswriters of the time to rank teams based upon how many points they scored. Since this statistic did not account for the strength or weakness of a team's opponent, Heisman disagreed with the amount of weight the writers tended to assign to it, and he may have unleashed his players on Cumberland to make his point. Cumberland received the opening kickoff and failed to make a first down.
After a punt , the Engineers scored on their first play. Georgia Tech led 63—0 after the first quarter and —0 at halftime. Georgia Tech added 54 more points in the third quarter and 42 in the final period. Georgia Tech scored a total of 32 touchdowns, and Georgia Tech's left end James Preas kicked 18 extra points. Several myths have developed around the game. Some have written that Cumberland did not have a single play that gained yards; in fact, its longest play was a yard pass on 4th-and [1] [2] or 3rd-and [3].
The Bulldogs gained positive yardage on at least six plays, though they fumbled on two of them. One page on Cumberland's website says Georgia Tech scored on every offensive play, but the play-by-play account of the game refutes this and suggests a more likely scenario: that Georgia Tech scored on every one of its sets of downs.
Thus, neither team made a first down that was not also a touchdown, as Cumberland made no first downs in the entire game. Cumberland purportedly committed 15 turnovers —nine fumbles and six interceptions —during the game. Sportswriter Grantland Rice wrote, "Cumberland's greatest individual play of the game occurred when fullback Allen circled right end for a 6-yard loss.
But you just can't tell what those Cumberland players have up their sleeves. They may spring a surprise. Be alert, men! Hit 'em clean, but hit 'em hard! Since World War II, only a handful of schools have topped points in a college football game. The modern-era record for most points scored against a college opponent is by Fort Valley State of Georgia against Knoxville College in The game ball had the score written on it as a memento. It was donated to the Helms Athletic Foundation sports museum by Bill Schroeder, an avid sports collector.
When the museum moved locations in the s, the ball was boxed and remained in storage. In October , a 40th reunion was held for players from both teams, of whom 28 were able to attend. While Cumberland's football team would eventually be restarted full-time and change its nickname to the Phoenix in , the two schools have not met in any sports since: Cumberland would eventually de-emphasize athletics, and currently competes in the NAIA , while Georgia Tech would go on to be a founding member of the Southeastern Conference before departing the SEC in , and is currently a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference.
