The 1924 Gonzaga Bulldogs football team was an American football team that represented Gonzaga University as a member of the Northwest Conference during the 1924 college football season. In their fifth and final year under head coach Gus Dorais, the Bulldogs compiled an overall 5–0–2 record with a mark of 3–0–2 in conference play, sharing the Northwest Conference title with Idaho.[1] Gonzaga shut out five of seven opponents, and outscored all opponents by a total of 138 to 26.
Four of the 11 starters on the 1924 Gonzaga team went on to play in the National Football League (NFL): left halfback Hust Stockton (1925–29); end Ray Flaherty (1926–1935); tackle Tiny Cahoon (1926–1929); and guard Hector Cyre (1926–1928). Dorais left Gonzaga after the 1924 season to become head football coach at the University of Detroit.
