DIVISION III FOOTBALL RECORDS
Individual Records 2
Official national statistics for all nonmajor four-year colleges began in 1946 with a limited postseason survey. In 1948, the service was expanded to include weekly individual and team statistics rankings in all categories except interceptions, field goals, punt returns and kickoff returns; these categories were added to official individual rankings and records in 1970. In 1992, statistics compilations for individual all-purpose yards and team net punting, punt returns, kickoff returns and turnover margin were begun. In 2000, defensive team and individual statistics were added. For many years, individual rankings were by totals. Beginning in 1970, most season individual rankings were by per-game averages. In total offense, receiving yards, all-purpose yards, rushing and scoring, yards or points per game determine rankings; in receiving and interceptions, catches per game; in punt and kickoff returns, yards per return; and in field goals, number made per game. Punting always has been by average, and all team rankings have been per game. Beginning in 1979, passers were ranked in all divisions on efficiency rating points, and team pass defense rankings changed to the same rating system in 1990. Before 1967, rankings and records included all four-year colleges that reported their statistics to the NCAA. Beginning with the 1967 season, rankings and records included only members of the NCAA.
College Division teams were divided into Division II and Division III under a three-division reorganization plan adopted by the special NCAA Convention on August 1, 1973. Career records of players include only those years in which they competed in Division II. Before 2002, postseason games were not included in NCAA final football statistics or records. Beginning with the 2002 season, all postseason games were included in NCAA final football statistics and records. Collegiate records for all NCAA divisions can be determined by comparing records for all four divisions. Before 2002, all individual and team statistics rankings include regular-season games only. A player whose career includes statistics for parts of more than four seasons (or an active player who will play in multiple seasons) because he was granted an additional season of competition for reasons of hardship or redshirt, is denoted by “$.” Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and limited number of games played, annual champions were not declared for the 2020 season.
NCAA DEFENSIVE FOOTBALL STATISTICS COMPILATION POLICIES All individual defensive statistics reported to the NCAA must be compiled by the press box statis-
tics crew during the game. Defensive numbers compiled by the coaching staff or other university/ college personnel using game film will not be con- sidered “official” NCAA statistics. This policy does not preclude a conference or institution from making after-the-game changes to press box numbers. This is consistent with existing NCAA policies involving corrections to any offensive statistics after a contest. Any changes to press box numbers must be obvious errors, such as misidentified players, and this should not be interpreted as a way for press box statistics to be later “updated” by the coaching films. Changes should be made within one week after the game is played. Statisticians also are reminded that NCAA policy does not permit changes to away-game statistics unless approved by the home sports information director. It is important to note that this policy applies ONLY to official NCAA statistics and national rankings, and does not mean a coaching staff cannot com- pile separate defensive statistics for institutional use. Those compilations also could appear in the institution’s press releases and/or website, as long as they are identified as coaching film numbers rather than official statistics as used by the NCAA. The NCAA statistics staff reserves the right to review any statistics provided to the national office and may withhold publishing/posting those numbers until the accuracy of those statistics can be substantiated.
INDIVIDUAL RECORDS Division III football records are based on the performances of Division III teams since the three- division reorganization plan was adopted by the special NCAA Convention in August 1973.
