Cam Newton set the single-season school passing touchdowns record in 2010 , his only season with the Tigers. The Auburn Tigers football statistical leaders are individual statistical leaders of the Auburn Tigers 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 Tigers represent Auburn University in the NCAA 's Southeastern Conference .
Although Auburn began competing in intercollegiate football in 1892,[ 1] the school's official record book considers the "modern era" to have begun in 1947. 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:
In 1947 , seasons increased from 10 games to 11 games in length. In 2006 , seasons increased from 11 games to 12 games in length. The NCAA didn't allow freshmen to play varsity football until 1972 (with the exception of the World War II years), allowing players to have four-year careers. Bowl games only began counting toward Single season and career statistics in 2002.[ 2] The Tigers have played in 14 bowl games since this decision. The Tigers have had two seasons, 2010 and 2013 , in which the Tigers run a high-octane offense that racked up 6,989 and 7,018 offensive yards, respectively. In fact, eight of the Tigers' ten seasons with the highest offensive output have come since 2000 under head coaches Tommy Tuberville , Gene Chizik , and Gus Malzahn .[ 1] These lists are updated through game 13 of the 2022 season .
