The 1913 Auburn Tigers football team represented Auburn University in the 1913 Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association football season.

The team played just two games at home.

Richard Billingsley is the only NCAA-recognized "major selector" to select Auburn as 1913 national champion. The retroactive selection of the 1913 Tigers first appeared in the 2000 NCAA records book, as the Billingsley Report revised its math system for the BCS computer rankings. In the 1996 NCAA records book, under his primary methodology, he had selected Chicago for 1913. Auburn did not claim the title until 2025, but did acknowledge it in its official media guide before then.
