North Carolina A&T Aggies football statistical leaders

[edit]
NCA&T Interlock Lettermark


The North Carolina A&T Aggies football statistical leaders are individual statistical leaders of the [[North Carolina A&T Aggies football program in various categories,[citation needed] including passing, rushing, receiving, total offense, defensive stats, and kicking. Within those areas, the lists identify single-game, single-season, and career leaders. The Aggies represent North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University in the NCAA's Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC).

Although North Carolina A&T began competing in intercollegiate football in 1901,[citation needed] the school's official record book considers the "modern era" to have begun in 1924. 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:

  • Since 1946, seasons have increased from 10 games to 11 and then 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.[1]
  • Division I Football Championship Subdivision teams participate in the FCS Playoffs, and as of the 2015 Season, the MEAC and SWAC Champions meet in the Celebration Bowl.

These lists are updated through the end of the 2012 season.
