Answer 5

The history of American football is an important part of both the culture of the United States and the broader history of various football games around the world, in which a ball is kicked at a goal and/or or carried over a line.
The Rutgers College football team of 1882, wearing uniforms typical of the period. The team would have played under the slightly modified rugby union rules used in American football at the time.Before the 19th century, when modern forms of football first emerged, the name "football" was applied to a widely-differing variety of codes of rules. Although there are mentions of native Americans playing ball games, modern American football has its origins in traditional ball games played at villages and schools in Europe for many centuries before America was settled by Europeans. There are reports of early settlers at Jamestown, Virginia playing games with inflated balls in the early 17th century.

As is the case with many sports, modern football games were popularized in the USA by students at and/or from elite schools and universities. These appear to have had much in common with the traditional "mob football" played in England, especially on Shrove Tuesday.

By 1820, a notoriously violent game known as "ballown" was being played at the College of New Jersey (later known as Princeton University). In 1827, a Harvard University student composed a humorous epic poem called The Battle of the Delta, one of the first accounts of football in American universities. Also in the 1820s, students at Dartmouth College, in Hanover, New Hampshire, were playing a kicking game that would be called "Old Division Football" (for which they published rules in 1871).
Rutgers University and Princeton University played a game on November 6, 1869 using a slightly modified version of the rules of Association Football. The Rutgers website provides the following details of the game [7][8][9]:
Rutgers won the game, 6 goals to 4
It was played by two teams of 25.
Two members of each team were stationed near their opponent's goal in the hope of scoring from unguarded positions.
Each team was divided into 11 "fielders" and 12 "bulldogs".
The ball could be advanced only by kicking or batting it with the feet, hands, heads or sides. The rules banned throwing or running with the ball. Rutgers players formed "a perfect interference" around the ball. Rutgers players advanced the ball by "short, skillful kicks." A Princeton player threw himself into a group of Rutgers players, "bursting us apart, and bowling us over." One Rutgers player used a technique of kicking the rolling ball with his heel. An illustration on the Rutgers website suggests that they were using a round ball. Touchdowns were not a feature. (In fact none were recorded in games played by Rutgers until 1878-79.)
The rules generally were the same as the rules of Association Football at the time. Points 1, 5, 7, 9 and 10 above in particular reflect the influence of soccer, which at the time did not bar players from hitting the ball with their hands, (or taking a "fair catch" followed by a free kick), but did not allow them to hold and run with the ball.
Princeton and the NFL also state that the 1869 game was based on soccer. The historian Stephen Fox identifies it as "New York Ball", a soccer-like game (which should not be confused with a type of baseball that also went by the same name), common in the vicinity of New York City.
Games between the two colleges and other teams soon followed.
On October 19, 1873, representatives from Yale, Columbia, Princeton, and Rutgers met at the Fifth Avenue Hotel in New York City to codify the first set of intercollegiate football rules, based directly on the rules of the F.A. in London. Harvard students chose not to attend.
In the words of the U.S. Professional Football Researchers Association, the four colleges decided, among other things, that: "5. No player shall throw or carry the ball. Any violation of this regulation shall constitute a foul...", "7. [No] player use his hands to hold or push an adversary...", and "12. In all matches a No. 6 ball shall be used, furnished by the challenging side and to become the property of the victor." "The No. 6 ball was imported from England where it was used by the London Football Association. It was 30 inches in circumference, entirely round, and very strong. It was not pigskin; rather, the covering was heavy canvas thoroughly saturated with rubber.
Rules number five and number seven stamped the game as soccer by eliminating carrying and the use of hands. There was unanimity among the four assembled schools for the exclusion of these practices. And, it was because everyone knew that the four assembled schools felt that way about it that Harvard, although invited, chose to skip the whole get-together.

McGill v. Harvard, 1874 & Harvard v. Yale, 1875
Harvard was isolated from its US counterparts by the fact that it did not play soccer. As a result, in 1874, Harvard footballers welcomed a request from the rugby team of McGill University of Montreal to play a pair of games at Harvard. In these games, the two teams alternated between the rules used by each college. Following these games, Harvard also adopted a game based on the rugby football code and played Yale under these rules in 1875 for the first edition of The Game. Within a few years, other US universities had also adopted rugby.
1876
On November 23, 1876 representatives from Harvard, Columbia, Princeton, and Yale met at Massasoit House in Springfield, Massachusetts to decide on standard American rules, an event which became known as the Massasoit Convention. They adopted the rugby football rules in their entirety, except for two changes: at the time a touch-down in rugby only counted toward the score if neither side kicked a field goal. Princeton, Harvard, and Columbia agreed that four touchdowns would be worth one goal; in the event of a tied score, a goal converted from a touchdown would take precedence over four touch-downs.The three colleges also founded the original Intercollegiate Football Association (IFA).
[Rutgers University and its neighbor, Princeton, played the first game of intercollegiate football on Nov. 6, 1869, on a plot of ground where the present-day Rutgers gymnasium now stands in New Brunswick, N.J. Rutgers won that first game,
