The 1967 Oklahoma Sooners football team represented the University of Oklahoma during the 1967 NCAA University Division football season. Led by first-year head coach Chuck Fairbanks, they played their home games at Oklahoma Memorial Stadium and competed as members of the Big Eight Conference. The Sooners won all seven conference games and finished the season with one loss to hated rival Texas in the Red River Shootout by two points. The Sooners upset number 9 Colorado on November 4 by a score of 23-0 in Norman to move into the top 10 ranking; they defeated Tennessee, 26–24, to win the Orange Bowl in Miami, Florida.
Entering his second season as head coach, 37-year-old Jim Mackenzie suffered a fatal heart attack at his Norman home in late April. Assistant coach Fairbanks, age 33, was promoted several days later.
