The 1918 Case Scientists football team represented the Case School of Applied Science, now a part of Case Western Reserve University, during the 1918 college football season. The team's head coach was Pat Pasini.[1]

Due to the Spanish flu pandemic, Case played the Wooster and Hiram games behind locked gates with no fans and cancelled their games with Ohio Wesleyan and Kenyon.[2] The game against Baldwin–Wallace was rescheduled from September 21 to midweek contest on November 6 and Hiram was added late in the year.[3]
