The 1981 UC Davis football team represented the University of California, Davis in the 1981 NCAA Division II football season. UC Davis competed in the Far Western Conference (FWC).[note 1]

The Aggies were led by head coach Jim Sochor in his 12th year. They played home games at Toomey Field. UC Davis finished the season as champion of the FWC for the 11th consecutive season and it was their 12th consecutive winning season. The Aggies finished the regular season with a record of six wins and four losses (6–4, 4–1 FWC). The Aggies outscored their opponents 163–140 for the 1981 season.

The conference loss against Humboldt State broke a streak of 38 consecutive conference victories that started in the 1973 season. However, the four conference wins to end the season started a new streak that would last the next nine years, 52 straight conference wins.
