The 1970 Whitewater State Warhawks football team represented Wisconsin State University—Whitewater—now known as the University of Wisconsin–Whitewater—as a member of the Wisconsin State University Conference (WSUC) during the 1970 NAIA football season. In their fifteenth year under coach Forrest Perkins, the Warhawks compiled an overall record of 6–4, and a mark of 5–3 in conference play, placing third in the WSUC.
