    The 1900 Yale Bulldogs football team was an American football team that represented Yale University as an independent during the 1900 college football season. The team finished with a 12–0 record, shut out ten of twelve opponents, and outscored all opponents by a total of 336 to 10.[1] Malcolm McBride was the head coach, and Gordon Brown was the team captain.

    Yale is the only team retroactively named as the national champion for 1900 by NCAA-designated "major selectors". Those include the Billingsley Report, Helms Athletic Foundation, Houlgate System, National Championship Foundation, and Parke H. Davis.[2]

    Seven Yale players were selected as consensus first-team players on the 1900 All-America team. The team's consensus All-Americans were: quarterback William Fincke; halfback George B. Chadwick; fullback Perry Hale; center Herman Olcott; guard Gordon Brown; and tackles George S. Stillman and James Bloomer.[3]
