The 1914 New Hampshire football team was an American football team that represented New Hampshire College of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts during the 1914 college football season—the school became the University of New Hampshire in 1923.
Under first-year head coach Thomas D. Shepherd, a former player for Maine, the team finished with a record of 1–6–2. The team was limited to five points for the season, scoring only one safety and one field goal (via drop kick). The team was shutout seven times, although two of those games were scoreless ties.
Schedule During this era, teams played in the one-platoon system. Scoring values were consistent with the present day: six points for a touchdown, one point for a conversion kick (extra point), and three points for a field goal.
