Baylor Bears football statistical leaders

The Baylor Bears football statistical leaders are individual statistical leaders of the Baylor Bears 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 Bears represent the Baylor University in the NCAA's Big 12 Conference.

Although Baylor began competing in intercollegiate football in 1898,[1] the school's official record book considers the "modern era" to have begun in 1945. 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.
