Led by 22nd-year head coach Jim Parady, the Red Foxes compiled an overall record of 8–3 and 7–1 in conference play, sharing the PFL title with Butler.

Marist played home games at Tenney Stadium at Leonidoff Field in Poughkeepsie, New York.

PFL teams were eligible to compete in the NCAA Division I Football Championship playoff for the first time in 2013.

Butler and Marist did not play each other in the regular season, so the PFL used the College Sporting News' Gridiron Power Index to determine the league's automatic bid to the playoffs.
