The 1889 College Football All-America team was the first College Football All-America Team. The team was selected by Caspar Whitney and published in This Week's Sports. The team selected by Whitney in 1889 marked the origin of the "All-America" teams that have since been picked in many collegiate sports. All eleven members of the 1889 All-America team played for either Harvard, Princeton or Yale, then known as the "Big Three" of college football. Some sources indicate that Walter Camp assisted Whitney with the selection of the 1889 All-American team, while others indicate that Camp did not become involved in the selection process until some time in the 1890s.

The team selected by Whitney in 1889 marked the origin of the "All-America" teams that have since been picked in many collegiate sports. All eleven members of the 1889 All-America team played for either Harvard, Princeton or Yale, then known as the "Big Three" of college football. Some sources indicate that Walter Camp assisted Whitney with the selection of the 1889 All-American team, while others indicate that Camp did not become involved in the selection process until some time in the 1890s. The first All-America team included Amos Alonzo Stagg (then a player for Yale), Pudge Heffelfinger (who later became the first professional football player), "Snake" Ames (who set a college scoring record with 730 points), Edgar Allan Poe (second cousin, twice removed of the writer of the same name), Arthur Cumnock (described as the greatest Harvard football player of all time in 1913), and Roscoe Channing (who later served with Theodore Roosevelt in the Rough Riders).

- La squadra All-America di college football 1889 (1889 College Football All-America Team) è stata la prima squadra All-America di college football. La squadra fu selezionata da e pubblicata su This Week's Sports. La squadra selezionata da Whitney nel 1889 segnò l'origine delle squadre "All-America" che sono poi apparse in tutti gli sport collegiali dall'hockey su ghiaccio maschile alla ginnastica femminile. Tutti gli undici membri della squadra 1889 facevano parte di tre squadre: Harvard, Princeton e Yale, allora conosciute come le "Big Three" del college football. Alcune fonti indicano che Walter Camp assistette Whitney per la selezione, mentre altri indicano che Camp non fu coinvolto nelle selezioni se non a partire dalla decade successiva. Il primo All-America team incluse quello che fu poi leggendario allenatore Amos Alonzo Stagg (all'epoca giocatore di Yale), (il primo giocatore professionista di football americano), (recordman di punti al college con 730), (cugino di secondo grado dello scrittore), (descritto come il più grande giocatore di Harvard di tutti i tempi nel 1913), e (che servì poi con Teddy Roosevelt nei Rough Riders).
