1967 NCAA University Division football rankings

Two human polls comprised the 1967 NCAA University Division football rankings. Unlike most sports, college football's governing body, the NCAA, does not bestow a national championship, instead that title is bestowed by one or more different polling agencies. There are two main weekly polls that begin in the preseason—the AP Poll and the Coaches Poll.

The final AP Poll was released in late November, at the end of the 1967 regular season. This was last time that the final poll was conducted before bowl season.
