The 1936 Slippery Rock Rockets football team was an American football team that represented Slippery Rock State Normal School (now known as Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania) as a member of the Pennsylvania State Teachers Conference (PSTC) during the 1939 college football season. In their 20th season under head coach N. Kerr Thompson, the Rockets compiled an 8–0 record (5–0 against PSTC opponents), won the PSTC championship, and outscored opponents by a total of 202 to 20.[1][2]
