American college football season
The 2013 VMI Keydets football team represented the Virginia Military Institute in the 2013 NCAA Division I FCS football season . They were led by sixth year head coach Sparky Woods and played their home games at Alumni Memorial Field . They are a member of the Big South Conference . 2013 was VMI's final year as a member of the Big South, as they will move to the Southern Conference in 2014.
The season began with a 34–0 shutout defeat at the hands of Richmond on August 31. The Keydets achieved their first win of the year the following week by defeating Glenville State 34–27, thanks to a last second goal-line stand as time expired. After a 37–24 loss to Division II North Greenville , VMI would endure a 7-game losing streak, falling to Virginia , Robert Morris in double overtime, Charleston Southern , Presbyterian , Coastal Carolina , and Liberty .
The Keydets' losing streak was snapped on November 9 with a decisive 27–9 win over Gardner–Webb . This also saw the end of a 9-game conference losing streak. VMI then lost to The Citadel 31–10 in the Military Classic of the South , and ended the year with a 35–23 loss to the Bucknell Bison , finishing the year at 2–10 and 1–4 in Big South play. It was the third straight year VMI won only two games in a season.
