The 2025 St. Thomas Tommies football team represented the University of St. Thomas during the 2025 NCAA Division I FCS football season as members of the Pioneer Football League (PFL). They were led by 17th-year head coach Glenn Caruso. The Tommies played their home games at O'Shaughnessy Stadium in Saint Paul, Minnesota. This season marked the first time St. Thomas was fully eligible for the FCS playoffs after completing their reclassification from Division III, based on meeting the academic criteria to expedite the process from 5 years to 4 years.[1]
