Unable to see how this could meet the
WP:NSEASONS. A one game season against a local high school, with the game result unknown, does not scream notability, despite it being the first football game for the school, due to the seeming lack of GNG coverage. Open to a
WP:ATD but not sure what would make sense here.

Delete per nom. A single game against the local high school boys is neither "college football", nor is it a "season". A "merger" with the 1897 and 1898 seasons isn't viable at this time, because those articles are unsourced messes as well (with no results even reported in the 1897 article). If and when someone cares enough to research and properly source a combined article, that may make sense, but as things stand, "delete" is the only viable solution.

Oppose merge as things stand. All three years have articles that are essentially unsourced.WP:NSEASONS does not mean that three unsourced articles can be "grouped" and suddenly be acceptable. Also, merger isn't something the closer can do without the target existing. Accordingly, merger isn't viable here unless someone creates that target article and includes enough sourcing to get it over the
WP:GNG.
