American college football season
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1968 Vermont Catamounts football team was an American football team that represented the University of Vermont in the Yankee Conference during the 1968 NCAA College Division football season. In their seventh year under head coach Bob Clifford, the team compiled a 3–6 record. Of note, this would be the last season in the run of UVM football from the late nineteenth century to 1974 that in-state rivals Middlebury and Norwich would both play the Catamounts. Norwich would play them one more time in 1974.
