The 1970 Long Beach State 49ers football team represented California State College, Long Beach—now known as California State University, Long Beach—as a member of the Pacific Coast Athletic Association (PCAA) during the 1970 NCAA University Division football season. Led second-year head coach Jim Stangeland, the 49ers compiled an overall record of 9–2–1 with a mark of 5–1 in conference play, sharing the PCAA title with San Diego State. Since Long Beach State had beaten San Diego State head-to-head, the 49ers qualified for a postseason bowl game, the Pasadena Bowl.[1] Played on December 19 against the Missouri Valley Conference champion Louisville Cardinals at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, the game ended in 24–24 tie.[2] The team played four home games at Veterans Memorial Stadium adjacent to the campus of Long Beach City College in Long Beach, California and one well-attended game at Anaheim Stadium in Anaheim on a Friday night against San Diego State.[1]
Running back Leon Burns received first-team honors on the 1970 Little All-America college football team.[3]
