The 1908 Idaho football team represented the University of Idaho in the 1908 college football season. Idaho was led by second-year head coach John R. Middleton, and played as an independent.

Idaho met Utah for the first time, in Salt Lake City on Thanksgiving. The field was covered by two feet (60 cm) of snow and the game was scoreless.[1][2]
