The 1942 Little All-America college football team is composed of college football players from small colleges and universities who were selected by the Associated Press (AP) as the best players at each position. For 1942, the AP selected first, second, and third teams.[1]
Due to the impact of World War II, the AP did not pick another Little All-America team until 1945.
