The 1904 Washington Agricultural football team was an American football team that represented Washington Agricultural College as an independent during the 1904 college football season. Led by head coach Everett Sweeley, the team compiled a record of 2–2.[1][2][3]

In early 1904, Paul Rader was appointed as football coach at Washington Agricultural College.[4] However, by the summer of 1904, the school's administrators could not locate Rader, who was working as a pastor at a church in Boston, and began negotiations with James N. Ashmore, who had coached the 1903 Washington Agricultural football team, to return in 1904.[5] Sweeley was ultimately hired to coach the team.[6]
