During this era, teams played in the one-platoon system. This was the first season to use scoring values consistent with the present day: a touchdown was now worth six points[6] (from 1898 through 1911, it had been worth five points),[c] while a conversion kick (extra point) and field goal remained unchanged at one point and three points, respectively.
The New Hampshire noted that current policy was to award varsity letters to the 13 players who played the most minutes in the team's final two games of the season (for this season: Rhode Island and Massachusetts), and also the team's student manager.[17]
Notes
^The school did not adopt the Wildcats nickname until February 1926;[4] before then, they were generally referred to as "the blue and white".
^The school was often referred to as New Hampshire College or New Hampshire State College in newspapers of the era.
^The Bates game ended after three quarters of play, by agreement of the teams, to allow the New Hampshire players time to catch their return train to Durham.[8]
^Some sources indicate the loss to Tufts was 23–0.[10][11]
^The game against crew of the USS Washington was included in a season summary in The Granite yearbook.[11] However, The New Hampshire described it as "a practice game with one of the battleships" in a recap of the season.[15] (Washington, actually an armored cruiser, was at nearby Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in early November.)[16]The New Hampshire later mentioned that the team's final two games of the season were against Rhode Island and Massachusetts,[17] which further suggests the Washington match was considered a practice game.
