The1908 Harvard Crimson football team was anAmerican football that representedHarvard University as an independent during the1908 college football season. In their first season under head coachPercy Haughton, the Crimson finished with a 9–0–1 record, shut out eight of ten opponents, and outscored all opponents by a total of 132 to 8.[1]

There were no polls at the time to determine anational championship. However, in later analyses, Harvard was recognized as the 1908 national champion by theBillingsley Report. Most of the later analyses (Helms Athletic Foundation,Houlgate System,Parke H. Davis) designatedPenn as the national champion. TheNational Championship Foundation chose Penn and LSU as co-national champions.[2]

Three Harvard players were consensus first-team picks on the1908 All-America college football team: halfbackHamilton Corbett; centerCharles Nourse; and tackleHamilton Fish III.[3] Five other Harvard players also received All-American honors: quarterbackJohnny Cutler (first-team honors fromThe New York Times andThe Christian Science Monitor, second-team fromWalter Camp); halfback Ernest Ver Wiebe (first-team honors fromThe Christian Science Monitor, second-team from Camp); end Gilbert Goodwin Browne (first-team honors fromPhiladelphia Press); tackleRobert McKay (first-team fromThe Christian Science Monitor); and guard Samuel Hoar (first-team fromNew York World,Tad Jones, andPhiladelphia Press).[4][5]
