May or may not be a University photograph, but does anyone recognise any of the faces or the colours. Clearly a cut above usual photographs of this period (I am assuming Edwardian) as they have matching socks and wearing mostly matching jackets.

It has never been posted nor it there any clues on the reverse, apart from 'B71'.

There must hundreds of postcards similar to this where we have lost the identities of those teams and players.

Front row with glasses, could be Jacob Rees Mogg before he became a famous Tory?

Joking aside (and Jacob Rees Mogg is exactly that), the chap in the back row, second left, looks a bit like Douglas Jardine (Oxford 1920-23)

Jardine's wiki says he played his football as a goalkeeper. Is that a different colour shirt to the pair on the right hand end of the back row?

Possibly Winchester College 1914-1919 or New College Oxford 1919-1923?
