1893 Tennessee Volunteers football team

American college football season From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1893 Tennessee Volunteers football team represented the University of Tennessee as an independent in the 1893 college football season. The 1893 season was Tennessee's third season as a varsity squad. A notable matchup for Tennessee came against Kentucky State College, later the University of Kentucky, in the first meeting of the two programs.[1] The 1893 varsity team was to be the last until 1896 because the university "wanted to put emphasis on academics." The Vols went 2–5, losing the first five games.
