Rankings

[edit]
Main article:1972 small college football rankings

College Division teams (also referred to as "small college") were ranked in polls by theAP (a panel of writers) and byUPI (coaches). The national champion(s) for each season were determined by the final poll rankings, published at or near the end of the regular season, before any bowl games were played.

Small college polls

[edit]

Both the UPI and AP panels rankedDelaware (10–0) first, followed byLouisiana Tech (11–0), andCal Poly (8–0–1).[1][2] Louisiana Tech later defeatedTennessee Tech in theGrantland Rice Bowl, while Cal Poly lost toNorth Dakota in theCamellia Bowl. Delaware declined an invitation to faceUMass (7–2) in theBoardwalk Bowl, and did not play in the postseason.[3]
