The 1917 Camp Grant football team was an American football team that represented Camp Grant, located near Rockford, Illinois, during the 1917 fall football season. The team lost its game with Great Lakes Navy, but won its game against Camp Custer at Stagg Field in Chicago.
Amos Alonzo Stagg and Fred J. Murphy, the head coaches at Chicago and Northwestern, coached the Camp Grant team in the week leading up to their game with Camp Custer. Fielding H. Yost of Michigan helped coach the Camp Custer team. Stagg and Murphy were assisted by Lewis Omer and Major Gillesby. Ring Lardner attended Camp Grant's game with Camp Custer and wrote a column describing the spectacle.
