#CFB150: Celebrating the 150th Anniversary of College Football

This year marks the 150th anniversary of the first college football game between Rutgers and Princeton, which took place on November 6, 1869. To celebrate the anniversary, we are highlighting great moments in OVC football history throughout the 2019 season. Information on the anniversary can also be found at CFB150.org.
