Virginia Cavaliers football statistical leaders

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

Although Virginia began competing in intercollegiate football in 1888,[1] the school's official record book considers the "modern era" to have begun in 1946. Records from before this year are often incomplete and inconsistent, and they are generally not included in these lists.

These lists are dominated by more recent players for several reasons:

These lists are updated through the end of the 2015 season.
