Mississippi State Bulldogs football statistical leaders explained

The Mississippi State Bulldogs football statistical leaders are individual statistical leaders of the Mississippi State Bulldogs football program in various categories,[1] including passing, rushing, total offense, all-purpose yardage, receiving, defensive stats, and kicking. Within those areas, the lists identify single-game, single-season and career leaders. The Bulldogs represent Mississippi State University in the NCAA's Southeastern Conference.

Although Mississippi State began competing in intercollegiate football in 1895, the school's official record book considers the "modern era" to have begun in the 1940s. Records from before this year are often incomplete and inconsistent, and they are generally not included in these lists, although on some lists records from the 1930s or even the 1900s appear.

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

These lists are updated through the 12th game of the 2023 season.
