1899 Auburn Tigers football team

The 1899 Auburn Tigers football team represented Auburn University in the 1899 Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association football season.

It only weighed about 160 (pounds per player), but its speed and team work were something truly wonderful.

It would line up and get the ball in play at times before the opposing players were up off the ground.

Auburn lost their matchup to the "Iron Men" by a single point.
