The 1916 varsity football team won its ninth consecutive football championship under coach Frank Dobie. A record-breaking crowd attended the final game against the University of California. By spring of 1917, the entry of the United States into World War I left men's intercollegiate sports competition in doubt.

This photo shows the 1916 varsity football team in an offensive formation at the University of Washington stadium.
