The 1913 Georgia Bulldogs football team completed the season with a 6–2–0 record. This team played Virginia for the first time since the tragic game of 1897 in which a Georgia player died. Bob McWhorter also played his last games for the Bulldogs in the 1913 season and also became the first player to be selected as an All-American. Georgia also played its first game in Georgia Tech's new stadium, coming away with a victory. The 108–0 victory over Alabama Presbyterian in the first game of the season represents the largest margin of victory in Georgia football history.

Famous quotes containing the word season:
“The landscape was clothed in a mild and quiet light, in which the woods and fences checkered and partitioned it with new regularity, and rough and uneven fields stretched away with lawn-like smoothness to the horizon, and the clouds, finely distinct and picturesque, seemed a fit drapery to hang over fairyland. The world seemed decked for some holiday or prouder pageantry ... like a green lane into a country maze, at the season when fruit-trees are in blossom.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
