American college football season From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1910 Georgia Bulldogs football team represented the University of Georgia during the 1910 college football season. The Bulldogs completed the season with a 6–2–1 record. The team started with two tune-up games that Georgia won by a combined score of 180–0. The Bulldogs notched victories over Alabama and Georgia Tech, ending a five-game losing streak to Tech.[1] Georgia did lose to rival Auburn, but the first season under new head coach W. A.
