The 1912 college football season was the first of the modern era, as the NCAA implemented changes to increase scoring: * Teams were given 4 downs instead of 3 downs to gain ten yards * The value of a touchdown was increased from 5 points to 6 points * The field was reduced from 110 yards to 100 yards, and end zones of ten yards were added * Kickoff was made from the 40 yard line rather than midfield.
