    • The 1979 Washington Huskies football team was an American football team that represented the University of Washington during the 1979 NCAA Division I-A football season. In its fifth season under head coach Don James, the team compiled a 9–3 record, finished in second place in the Pacific-10 Conference, and outscored its opponents 321 to 154.
    The two conference losses were to Arizona State and USC; Arizona State later vacated its wins due to ineligible players. The conference opponents not played this season were Arizona and Stanford. Washington won the Apple Cup over Washington State for a sixth consecutive year, and the Sun Bowl over favored Texas.
    Defensive back Mark Lee was selected as the team's most valuable player. Phil Foreman, Doug Martin, Antowaine Richardson, and Joe Steele were the team captains.
