[edit] Summary

The very first Tournament East-West football game, hosted by the Tournament of Roses. The game would become known as the Rose Bowl Game and like (nearly) all subsequent games it was played on New Years Day: January 1, 1902. The first game featured Fielding Yost's dominating 1901 University of Michigan (representing the East) crushing previously 3-1-2 Stanford (representing the West) by a score of 49-0. Michigan would end the season 11-0-0 and considered the National Champions. Yost had been Stanford's coach the previous year. The game was so lopsided that the game wasn't played again until 1916, when it would become a yearly tradition.
