The 2013 Auqali Topakees football team represented the University of Auqali in the sport of gridiron football during the 2013 OIAA Division I-A football season. They were coached by Garrett Kendrick in his 11th season of coaching, and played their home games in Allen Stadium in Sedter, Auqali. They were members of the STC’s Eastern Division, of which was their 81st year as charter members of the conference. The Topakees were led by Hawthorne-Epps Trophy winner Nolan Qaldetti, and finished the season with a perfect 14–0 record, breaking the school record for wins, previously set at 13 by the 2002 team. This record would eventually be broken by the 2021 team at 15 wins. The Topakees captured their 11th STC title, a 45–0 shutout of the 5th-ranked Alčona Tigers in the 2013 STC Championship Game. Following the STC Championship, the Topakees were invited to play St. John’s Conference champion Vertannia in the 2014 Tangerine Bowl, where they won in dominant fashion, 42–14.
Along with winning the Hawthorne-Epps Trophy, Nolan Qaldetti won the Wezeles Award, the Krauža-Gomez Award, and was honored as the AP/TP Player of the Year. Wide receivers Talon Ward and Iaqób Kolaxa won both the Čeqen Award and the Osqalla Award, respectively. An OIAA-record sixteen players were named All-Orixtals, with five earning consensus honors. For their accomplishments, Spiro Lagóza was a finalist for both the Qorbins Award and the Sawall Trophy, and Coach Kendrick was named the OCFCA Coach of the Year and was a semifinalist for the Alstin Post Coach of the Year.
Twenty-seven Topakees from the national title team have gone on to play professional football with twenty-one players going on to play in the OFL, including league-record seven first round picks, four players in the CFL, and two players in the UFL. Nine players have been named consensus All-Orixtals. Since the National Championship, numerous players have gone on to win a Pro football championship, including Nolan Qaldetti, Talon Ward, Iaqób Kolaxa, Alex Adona, Qam Čusan, and Spiro Lagóza. On the season, the Topakees outscored their opponents by a combined total of 740 to 175. Owing to their dominant performance against a historically difficult schedule, several pundits have called the team one of the greatest in college football history.
