  The 2011 Saskatchewan Huskies football team represented the University of Saskatchewan in the 2011 CIS university football season. They played their home games at Griffiths Stadium in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The team went into the season hoping to rebound from a disappointing fourth quarter collapse resulting in a loss to the Alberta Golden Bears in the 2010 Canada West Semi-Final.
