Rankings from NAIA poll
The 1964 Concordia Cobbers football team was an American football team that represented Concordia College of Moorhead, Minnesota, as a member of the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) during the 1964 NAIA football season. In their 24th year under head coach Jake Christiansen, the Cobbers compiled a 10–0–1 record (7–0 against conference opponents), won the MIAC championship, and tied Sam Houston State in the Champion Bowl to share the NAIA national championship.[2][1]
Junior fullback Dave Heide totaled 993 rushing yards in nine regular-season games.[3] Four Cobbers received first-team honors on the 1964 All-MIAC football team selected by the conference coaches: Heide; senior quarterback Bob Nick (praised for his "versatility and amazing football sense"); senior end Paul Brynteson (chosen for his "blocking strength", "pass-catching moves", and "place-kicking toe"); and linebacker Bob Braun (described as "a 200-pound socker").[4]
Concordia had a total enrollment in the fall of 1964 of 1,800 students.[5]
