The 1922 Stanford football team represented Stanford University as a member of the Pacific Coast Conference (PCC) during the 1922 college football season. Led by first-year head coach Andrew Kerr, Stanford compiled an overall record of 4–5 with a mark of 1–3 in conference play, tying for fifth place in the PCC. For the first time, the team played all its home games at Stanford Stadium, the construction of which had been completed at the end of the previous season. With imminent construction of California Memorial Stadium in Berkeley, California, Stanford hosted the Big Game for the second straight year, the only time the game was played in successive seasons at Stanford Stadium.
