The 1904 University of Florida White and Blue football team represented the University of Florida in the sport of American football during the 1904 college football season. This was not the modern Florida Gators of the University of Florida in Gainesville, which begins in 1906, but one of its four predecessor institutions: a school previously known as Florida Agricultural College, based in Lake City. The team played several major colleges, including Mike Donahue's first year coaching Auburn and John Heisman's first coaching Georgia Tech, failing to post a win. Only a single first down was scored on Tech.〔 〕 Coach Marvin O. Bridges founded UF's Alpha Eta chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha at Lake City on November 17, 1904. Florida and Georgia do not agree on when the Florida–Georgia rivalry began. The University of Georgia's athletic department counts the 1904 match.〔''( 2011 Georgia Football Media Guide )'', University of Georgia Athletic Department, Athens, Georgia, pp. 157 & 158 (2011). Retrieved August 19, 2011.〕 The game was held in Macon, Georgia, and Georgia won 52–0.〔 UGA sports historian Dan Magill sums up Georgia's attitude: "That's where Florida was back then. We can't help it if they got run out of (City )." The October 4, 1904 game against the University of Florida was considered a practice game by Auburn〔("1905 Glomerata" ) "(Annual),p182, Retrieved August 18, 2011"〕 and is not included in the official record of 5–0 for the season.〔''( 2011 Auburn Tigers Football Media Guide )'', Auburn University Athletic Department, Auburn, Alabama, pp. 178–189, 191 (2011). Retrieved August 16, 2011〕 Florida State College wore purple and gold and were state champions.〔http://guides.lib.fsu.edu/c.php?g=353010&p=2381672〕 The team's coach was Jack Forsythe, later the first head coach of the Florida Gators. FSC's assistant was Jock Hanvey. Both coaches played for the Clemson Tigers the year before when it faced Bridges and Cumberland in the SIAA championship game. ==Schedule== 〔http://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/schools/florida/1904-schedule.html〕〔http://patrickgarbin.blogspot.com/2011/10/disregarded-gators.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1904 University of Florida Blue and White football team」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
