Saturday, October 12, 1912 · 12:00 AM – 11:59 PM

The 1912 Florida Gators football team represented the University of Florida during the 1912 college football season. The season was the fourth for George Pyle as the Florida Gators football team's head coach. Pyle's 1912 Florida Gators finished their seventh varsity football season with an SIAA conference record of 1–2 and an overall winning record of 5–2–1. The 1912 season saw several milestone events for the young program, including the first season in which they officially competed as the "Florida Gators"; their first conference games (in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association), their first contests with future rivals Auburn, Georgia Tech, and South Carolina, and their first participation in a post-season bowl game. Florida also claimed an unofficial state championship by beating in-state rival Stetson for the third consecutive year. Wiki link
