The 1925 Clemson Tigers football team

The 1925 Southern Conference football season was the college football games played by the member schools of the Southern Conference as part of the 1925 college football season. The season began on September 19. 1925 saw the south's widespread use of the forward pass. ^[1]

In the annual Rose Bowl game, the SoCon champion Alabama Crimson Tide defeated the heavily favored PCC champion Washington Huskies by a single point, 20–19, and became the first southern team ever to win a Rose Bowl. It is commonly referred to as "the game that changed the south." ^[2] Alabama halfback Johnny Mack Brown was the Rose Bowl game's MVP. Alabama was retroactively named as national champion for 1925 by several major selectors, along with Dartmouth. ^{[3] [4]}

Tulane back Peggy Flournoy led the nation in scoring with his 128 points, a school record not broken until 2007 by Matt Forte. With also Lester Lautenschlaeger in the backfield to lead the Green Wave, Tulane beat Northwestern i a game which helped herald the arrival of Southern football. ^[5]

The Georgia Tech team, led by Doug Wycoff, had one of the best defenses in school history.
