The 1936 Baldwin–Wallace Yellow Jackets football team was an American football team that represented Baldwin–Wallace University as a member of the Ohio Athletic Conference (OAC) during the 1936 college football season. In their ninth year under head coach Ray E. Watts, the Yellow Jackets compiled a 7–1 record (2–0 against conference opponents), finished in second place in the OAC, and outscored opponents by a total of 330 to 70.[1] Baldwin–Wallace was ranked No. 18 in the final 1936 Litkenhous Ratings released in early January 1937.[2]

Baldwin–Wallace's triple-threat halfback Norm Schoen led the nation with 117 points scored,[3] including 31 points against Louisville.[4] Four Baldwin–Wallace players earned first-team honors on the 1936 All-Ohio Conference football teams selected by the United Press (UP) or Associated Press (AP). The first-team honorees were: Norm Shoen at back (AP-1, UP-1); Kenneth Noble at back (AP-1, UP-1); William Krause at tackle (AP-1, UP-1); and end Bill Davidson (AP-1, UP-2).[5][6] Schoen was named the honorary captain of the UP's All-Ohio Conference team.[5]
