In their seventh year under head coach Don Faurot, the Bulldogs compiled an 8–0 record (4–0 against conference opponents), won the MIAA championship, shut out six of eight opponents, and outscored all opponents by a total of 132 to 14.[1] The 1932 season was part of a 27-game winning streak that included three consecutive perfect seasons in 1932, 1933, and 1934.[1][2]
