Setting the Stage: The Early Days of Auburn Football

This is the story of those who worked together to establish the sport we know and love today. Auburn football is big business. In the mist of rapidly changing times, Auburn's leaders overcame the objections of faculty members who demanded more funding, and religious leaders who thought the sport would be too dangerous, to field its first football team.
