56-0 against Birmingham high school on Nov. 11, 1892.

Friday.

Actually, the opponent, in Birmingham, was a picked group from Professor Taylor's school and Birmingham high schools...the players were actually not all from one school

The trick question is what team, and on what date, did Bama play in their second game?

And...what was the distance of the winning field goal?

Wondered where you were....to me, the interesting fact is, on the next day, Bama played game #2 and was beat by a 63 yard field goal...63 yards!
