1967 small college football rankings

The 1967 small college football rankings are rankings of college football teams representing smaller college and university teams during the 1967 college football season, including the 1967 NCAA College Division football season and the 1967 NAIA football season. Separate rankings were published by the Associated Press (AP) and the United Press International (UPI). The AP rankings were selected by a board of sports writers, and the UPI rankings were selected by a board of small-college coaches.

The 1967 San Diego State Aztecs football team (10–1), led by head coach Don Coryell, was rated as the small-college champion by both the AP and UPI. The Aztecs' only loss was to a University Division team, Utah State. North Dakota State was ranked second by both, then lost to Texas–Arlington in the Pecan Bowl.
