Great lot of newspapers from 90 years ago. Would look great in a collection for a present-day fan of the UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA "Golden Gophers" football team.
The 1929 Minnesota Golden Gophers football team represented the University of Minnesota in the 1929 college football season. In their fourth year under head coach Clarence Spears, the Golden Gophers compiled a 6
–2 record and outscored their opponents by a combined score of 179 to 55.
Bronko Nagurski was named an All-American at fullback and tackle by the Associated Press and Look. Nagurski and end Robert Tanner were named All-Big Ten first team.
Bronislau "Bronko" Nagurski (November 3, 1908
– January 7, 1990) was a Canadian-American professional American football player in the National Football League (NFL), renowned for his strength and size. Nagurski was also a successful professional wrestler, recognized as a multiple-time World Heavyweight Champion.
Nagurski became a standout playing both tackle on defense and fullback on offense at the University of Minnesota from 1927 to 1929, selected a consensus All-American in 1929 and inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in its inaugural year of 1951. His professional career with the Chicago Bears, which began in 1930 and ended on two occasions in 1937 and 1943, also made him an inaugural inductee into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1963.
Total attendance for the season was 204,083, which averaged to 34,014. The season high for attendance was against Michigan.
