The 2018 West Texas A&M Buffaloes football team represented West Texas A&M University in the 2018 NCAA Division II football season as members of the Lone Star Conference (LSC). The Buffaloes were led by second-year head coach Hunter Hughes. The team played its home games at Kimbrough Memorial Stadium in Canyon, Texas. This was the last year the Buffaloes played their home games at Kimbrough Memorial as the Canyon Independent School District purchased the stadium from the university; the team moved to the on-campus Buffalo Stadium (later renamed Bain–Schaeffer Buffalo Stadium) starting with the 2019 season.

The Buffaloes finished the 2018 season with an overall record of 6–5, going 4–4 in LSC play to finish in a three-way tie for fourth place.
