The 1967 Oregon Webfoots football team represented the University of Oregon during the 1967 college football season. Home games were played on campus in Eugene at the new Autzen Stadium, opened this season with a natural grass field (and replaced with AstroTurf two years later).
Under first-year head coach Jerry Frei, the Ducks were 2–8 overall and 1–5 in the Athletic Association of Western Universities (AAWU, later renamed Pacific-8), in a tie for seventh place, and were outscored by their opponents, 193 to 104. The Ducks met USC for the first time since 1958, the final Pacific Coast Conference (PCC) season. (UCLA was similarly off of UO's schedule until 1969).
Oregon's two victories came against the Palouse neighbors, Idaho and Washington State. After opening with five losses, shutouts in the last three, the 31–6 win over the Vandals on October 21 was the first for Frei and the first for Oregon in Autzen Stadium. The Ducks traveled to Pullman two weeks later and defeated the Cougars 17–13 for their sole conference win. In between, they lost 28–6 to top-ranked USC in Los Angeles, but held junior running back O. J. Simpson to just 63 yards on 23 carries. He was similarly contained the following season in Eugene.
