Ed Widseth
Edwin Clarence Widseth (January 5, 1910 – December 3, 1998) was an American professional football player who was a tackle for the New York Giants of the National Football League (NFL) for four seasons. He played college football for the Minnesota Golden Gophers football team of the University of Minnesota, where he was a consensus All-American in 1935 and 1936. Widseth was drafted by the New York Giants in the first round of the 1937 NFL Draft, and was chosen for the pro Bowl in 1938. He was later inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame. ==University of Minnesota== Widseth was born in Gonvick, Minnesota in 1910. He played high school football in McIntosh, Minnesota and began his college football career at the Northwest School of Agriculture (later renamed University of Minnesota, Crookston) where he graduated in 1932. Widseth next enrolled at the University of Minnesota where he played football for Bernie Bierman's great Minnesota Golden Gophers football teams of the mid-1930s. The Golden Gophers compiled a record of 23-1 during Widseth's three seasons on the team from 1934–1936. Widseth reportedly "'lived' in enemy backfields and was unquestionably the pillar of strength in the Gopher line" during a period in which they claimed three consecutive national championships.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=College Football Hall of Fame )〕 The only game the Golden Gophers lost during Widseth's three years as a starter was a 6-0 loss to Northwestern in 1936.〔 Minnesota had a 28-game winning streak when they went to Evanston for a Halloween Day game against Northwestern. The game was scoreless when Widseth tackled a Northwestern player, and the referee accused Widseth of "slugging" the Northwestern player. After a 15-yard penalty was assessed, the ball was placed at Minnesota's one-yard line, and Northwestern scored a touchdown for the only points of the game.〔 Widseth also won two varsity letters as a pitcher and first baseman for the Minnesota baseball team.〔 Widseth was selected as a first-team All-American in all three seasons he played for the Golden Gophers. As a sophomore in 1934, he was selected as a first-team All-American by the International News Service ("INS") -- the Hearst newspaper syndicate. In 1935, he received first-team All-American honors from the United Press ("UP"), the All-America Board, ''Liberty Magazine'', the INS, the North American Newspaper Alliance, the Central Press Association, and the Walter Camp Football Foundation ("WCFF").〔 In 1936, he was a consensus All-American receiving first-team honors from the Associated Press, the UP, ''Collier's Weekly'', the INS, the Newspaper Editors Association, ''Liberty Magazine'', the Central Press, and WCFF.
