  • † South Carolina forfeited its 4 conference wins (Clemson, NC State, Virginia, Wake Forest) due to use of ineligible players. This improved Clemson and NC State from 4–3 to 5–2, making them co-champions. Overall records did not change due to the forfeits. Duke and South Carolina were originally co-champions with records of 4–2.

The 1965 Virginia Cavaliers football team represented the University of Virginia during the 1965 NCAA University Division football season. The Cavaliers were led by first-year head coach George Blackburn and played their home games at Scott Stadium in Charlottesville, Virginia. They competed as members of the Atlantic Coast Conference, originally finishing in seventh, however forfeited wins by South Carolina moved Virginia up to a tie for fourth.[2]
