Denny Field is located in Seattle, Washington, and served as the home grounds for the University of Washington football team from the 1895 through the 1920 seasons. Washington compiled an overall home record of 87 wins, 15 losses, and 13 ties on the field including an NCAA record 59–0–4 winning streak dating from 1907 to 1917.[1]
