Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Sidebar The 1970 Little All-America college football team is composed of college football players from small colleges and universities who were selected by the Associated Press (AP) as the best players at each position. For 1970, the AP selected three teams, each team having separate offensive and defensive platoons.[1][2]
Jim Lindsey of Abilene Christian was selected as the first-team quarterback. During his time at Abilene Christian, he became college football's all-time passing leader, completing 642 of 1,237 passes for 8,521 yards and 61 touchdowns.[2] Lindsey went on to play in the Canadian Football League.
Running back Leon Burns of Long Beach State was the only player to win first-team honors in both 1969 and 1970. He rushed for 1,033 yards in 1970, down from his 1969 totals of 1,659 yards and 27 touchdowns.[2]
Joe Profit of Northeast Louisiana broke the Gulf Coast Conference all-time rushing record and was named to the conference's all-decade team for the 1960s.[2] He was drafted by the Atlanta Falcons in the first round (seventh overall pick) of the 1971 NFL Draft.
Junior running back Leon McQuay of Tampa rushed for 1,362 yards, added 396 yards on kickoff returns, and scored 20 touchdowns.[2] He skipped his senior season to play in the Canadian Football League (CFL). He was a CFL All-Star in 1971.
