The 2024 St. Thomas Tommies football team represented the University of St. Thomas during the 2024 NCAA Division I FCS football season as members of the Pioneer Football League (PFL). They were led by 16th-year head coach Glenn Caruso, and the Tommies played home games at O'Shaughnessy Stadium in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
This season originally marked St. Thomas' fourth year of a five-year transition period from Division III to Division I, an incredibly rare and historic jump that bypasses Division II altogether. On January 15, 2025, the NCAA voted to amend the reclassification timeline for Division I institutions, potentially reducing the Division III to Division I transition period from five years to four. With the timeline amended, St. Thomas would be eligible for NCAA postseason play in the 2025 season as long as the university is able to meet the new standards set (such as academic requirements).
