The 1935 NCAA football season was the last one before the Associated Press writers' poll was used in selecting the national champion. The Dickinson System, consisting of the calculations of University of Illinois Professor Frank Dickinson, crowned Southern Methodist University (SMU) as the best in the nation. A poll of newspaper writers, taken at year's end—by United Press rather than the AP—concluded that the Minnesota was the best in the nation.

The 1935 season also marked the first time the Heisman Trophy was awarded. It was won by Jay Berwanger of Chicago.

September 21 SMU opened with a 39-0 win over North Texas and TCU opened its season with a 41-0 win over visiting Howard Payne College.

September 28 SMU beat Austin College 60-0 and TCU beat North Texas 28-11. Stanford beat San Jose State 35-0 and UCLA beat Utah State 39-0., Fordham University, whose 1936 team would include the legendary Seven Blocks of Granite was a favorite New York City college football teams, after New York University and Columbia University.
