It began with a 36-0 loss to the University of Rochester on
November 23, 1889, but that humbling debut proved to be an
aberration rather than an omen for Syracuse University football.
The Orangemen have since established themselves as the eleventh
winningest team in college football history, and more than two
hundred of their players have gone on to play professionally. Their
legendary success is celebrated in Syracuse University Football.
The Orangemen have participated in more than twenty bowl games.
In 1959, they went 11-0 under Hall of Fame coach Ben Schwartzwalder
and won the national championship. Through the years, Syracuse has
produced numerous stars, such as Heisman Trophy winner Ernie Davis,
and more than forty other All-Americans and a dozen College
Football Hall of Fame inductees. Along with Jim Brown and Floyd
Little, Davis helped make No. 44 one of football's most famous
jerseys, not to mention a permanent part of the university's zip
code. Syracuse University Football documents this outstanding
program with nearly two hundred photographs.
