History
In its fourth season under head coach George Munger, the team compiled a 7–1 record, won the Ivy League championship, outscored opponents by a total of 180 to 55, and was ranked No. 15 in the final AP Poll. The team's lone setback was a 13–6 loss to Navy.[1]
Back Gene Davis was selected by the Associated Press as a first-team player on the 1941 All-Eastern football team, and end Bernie Kuczynski was named to the second team.[2] Other key players included halfback Bob Odell, fullback Bert Stiff, and Bob Brundage.
Munger was Penn's head coach for 16 years; he was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1976.
