The 1936 Marquette Golden Avalanche football team represented Marquette University in the 1936 college football season. Marquette was led by long-time head coach Frank Murray. The team competed as a football independent and played their home games at Marquette Stadium in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The squad finished the season with a 7–2 record after losing to TCU in the inaugural Cotton Bowl Classic.
In their 1935 meeting, Marquette defeated the rival Wisconsin Badgers 33–0 and with many players returning from that squad entered the game as an eight to five favorite. On the road at Camp Randall Stadium the Golden Avalanche were victorious 12–6. Both of Marquette's touchdowns came on a pair of Arthur Guepe receptions from Ray Buivid in the first and third quarters. The Badgers responded with their lone touchdown in the fourth quarter when Irv Windward threw a three-yard touchdown pass to Roy Bellin. Although the Badgers outgained the Golden Avalanche in total offense 201 yards to 177, they lost the game 12–6.
A week after their victory over Wisconsin to open the season, Marquette traveled to Soldier Field in Chicago and defeated the Saint Louis Billikens, 32–6. The Golden Avalanche took a 6–0 lead on their first possession after driving 65-yards with Ray Buivid making the touchdown score after he recovered his own fumble from six-yards out. Their lead was then extended further to 13–0 on the second play of the second quarter when Arthur Guepe scored on a 72-yard touchdown run. After a Guepe touchdown run extended the Marquette lead to 20–0 in the third, the Golden Avalanche scored on a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns. Both scores came on touchdown passes to Raymond Sonnenberg, the first from Guepe and the second from Buivid. The Billikens did score a late touchdown to ruin the shutout after Ralph Hemp connected with Carl Totsch for a 35-yard touchdown. Marquette outgained Saint Louis in total offense 318 yards to 91 in their 32–6 victory.
