Today's Tidbit... Kicking Off With New Hampshire Football

Today we look at the image of the 1928 New Hampshire football team kicking off, covering a few elements of late 1920s football that pop out from the image.

One notable element is that everyone on the near sideline is seated or kneels in front of the bench. Coaching from the sideline was illegal then, and everyone had to be seated to prevent coaches from signaling plays or strategies using motion or body positioning.
