The 1893 Yale Bulldogs football team represented Yale University in the 1893 college football season. The team finished with a 10–1 record and, despite losing to Princeton, was retroactively named as the national champion by one selector, Parke H. Davis.[1][2] Yale's 1893 season was part of a 37-game winning streak that began with the final game of the 1890 season and stopped at the end of the 1893 season.
