Led by third-year head coach Cecil Coleman, Fresno State compiled an overall record of 10–0 with a mark of 5–0 in conference play, winning the CCAA title for the fourth consecutive year. The Bulldogs played home games at Ratcliffe Stadium on the campus of Fresno City College in Fresno, California.

At the end of the season, Fresno State took part in a charity bowl game, the Mercy Bowl against Bowling Green. The game was played as a fundraiser in memory of 16 Cal Poly Mustangs football players killed in a plane crash following a game against Bowling Green a year earlier.
