The 1921 California Golden Bears football team was an American football team that represented the University of California, Berkeley in the Pacific Coast Conference during the 1921 college football season. In their sixth year under head coach Andy Smith, the team compiled a 9–0–1 record, won the PCC championship, played Washington & Jefferson to a scoreless tie in the 1922 Rose Bowl, and outscored its opponents by a combined total of 312 to 33.
At season’s end, the Golden Bears played against Washington & Jefferson Presidents in the rain-soaked 1922 Rose Bowl, which ended in a 0–0 tie. The team was selected retroactively as the 1921 national champion by the Billingsley Report, College Football Researchers Association, and Jeff Sagarin, and as a co-national champion under the Boand.
