The 1982 Penn Quakers football team was an American football team that represented the University of Pennsylvania during the 1982 NCAA Division I-AA football season. Penn was one of three co-champions of the Ivy League.
In their second year under head coach Jerry Berndt, the Quakers compiled a 7–3 record and outscored opponents 221 to 192.[1] Tom Roland and Boris Radisic were the team captains.[2]
Penn's 5–2 conference put it in a three-way tie atop the Ivy League standings. The Quakers outscored Ivy opponents 160 to 127.[3] Penn won the head-to-head matchups with its co-champions, defeating Dartmouth in the first week of the season and beating Harvard in the second-to-last. Some argue this placed them at the top of the league.
This was Penn's first year in Division I-AA, after having competed in the top-level Division I-A and its predecessors since 1876.
After starting the year with three wins, the Quakers made several appearances in the weekly Division I-AA top 20 rankings. They were ranked No. 17 for the last week of the Ivy League season, but were unranked in the final rankings, which were released after their season-ending loss to Cornell.
Penn played its home games at Franklin Field adjacent to the university's campus in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
