Although not a college, the Carlisle (PA) Indian Industrial School had a football team from 1895 until 1917, and occasionally played the "Big Three" college football teams of that era -- Harvard, Yale and Princeton -- as well as Pennsylvania. The "Indians" never beat Yale or Princeton, but they were victorious over Harvard once or twice, and several times conquered Penn.
