The 1967 Tangerine Bowl was an NCAA College Division game following the 1967 season, between West Chester and Tennessee–Martin.[3] The most valuable players were defensive end Gordon Lambert and quarterback Errol Hook, both of Tennessee–Martin.[1]

Background

The game was one of four regional finals in the College Division, the predecessor of Division II; the other three postseason games were the Pecan Bowl (also played on December 16), along with the Grantland Rice and Camellia bowls (both played on December 9).
