Russellville football probably started in 1919. Here are several scores from that era.

1920 Coffee 19 Russellville 6
1920 Coffee 34 Russellville 0
1920 Hamilton 6 Russellville 0
1923 Deshler 38 Russellville 0
1924 Deshler 0 Russellville 0

Ralph McRight was an outstanding blocking back on Wallace Wade's 1925 University of Alabama Rose Bowl team. McRight must have graduated from Russellville around 1920-22. Source:Passing the Torch-A Look At The History of the Golden Tigers. 1994. Franklin County Times.

I recall from high school days that football at Russellville was thought to have started in 1919.
