The 1982 Lafayette Leopards football team was an American football team that represented Lafayette College as an independent during the 1982 NCAA Division I-AA football season. In their second year under head coach Bill Russo, the Leopards compiled a 7–3 record.[1] Bob Mahr and Ed Stahl were the team captains.[2] Though the team went unranked in the Division I-AA Football Committee poll during the season, the five-game winning streak at the end of the schedule secured a No. 20 rank in the final week of the poll, released November 24. Lafayette played home games at Fisher Field on College Hill in Easton, Pennsylvania.
