The Florida Atlantic Owls football statistical leaders are individual statistical leaders of the Florida Atlantic Owls football program in various categories, [1] including passing, rushing, receiving, total offense, defensive stats, kicking, and scoring. Within those areas, the lists identify single-game, single-season, and career leaders. The Owls represent Florida Atlantic University in the NCAA's Conference USA (C-USA).

Contents

Florida Atlantic began competing in intercollegiate football in 2001, [1] so full box scores exist for every game the Owls have ever played. Therefore, unlike most college football teams, FAU's record book is not hampered by unavailability of statistics from games and seasons played decades ago. However, because the program is relatively new, the values on these lists are usually lower than those typically seen on lists like these.

These lists are updated through the end of the 2018 season.
