The 1914 Harvard Crimson football team represented Harvard University in the 1914 college football season. The Crimson finished with an undefeated 7–0–2 record under seventh-year head coach Percy Haughton. Harvard outscored its opponents by a combined score of 187–28, but tied Penn State and Brown.[1][2]

Walter Camp selected four Harvard players (end Huntington "Tack" Hardwick, tackle Walter Trumbull, guard Stan Pennock, and halfback Eddie Mahan) as first-team members of his All-American Team.[3]

The Crimson played in the inaugural game at the Yale Bowl on November 21; Harvard defeated rival Yale, 36–0, with over 68,000 in attendance.[4][5][6]
