Previous season

Stony Brook joined the Colonial Athletic Association for the 2013 season together with their State University of New York rival Albany Great Danes. After a strong start beating Rhode Island for their first CAA win, the Seawolves struggled for most of the season on the gridiron losing their next three against Buffalo, Villanova, and Towson. They bounced back in their homecoming game to beat NEC Bryant and Patriot league Colgate but fell to three straight CAA opponents, eliminating them from playoff contention after back-to-back playoff seasons. The Seawolves went on to close the 2013 season strong beating James Madison and their rival Albany in the last game of the season to finish 5–6 overall, 3–5 in the CAA.
