The 2024 Borregos Salvajes Monterrey represented the Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education (ITESM) in the 2024 ONEFA Liga Mayor season. The Borregos Salvajes competed in the top-tier Conferencia 14 Grandes and played their home games at the Estadio Borregos in Monterrey. They were led by head coach Carlos Altamirano in his seventh full season and eighth overall since taking over midway through the 2016 season.[2][a]

The Borregos Salvajes compiled a perfect 12–0 record (9–0 in conference games) and won the ONEFA Liga Mayor national championship by defeating the Auténticos Tigres UANL in the Conferencia 14 Grandes championship game.[4] It was the program's third consecutive national championship under Altamirano, who played for the team in the 1990s.[1]

The Borregos Salvajes led the Conferencia 14 Grandes during the regular season in both total offense (474.8 yards per game) and total defense (238.2 yards per game). The team tallied a conference-best 4,274 yards in the regular season (3,086 passing, 1,188 rushing). They were led on offense by quarterback Fernando Sarabia, who completed 169 of 265 pass attempts for 2,493 yards and 24 touchdowns during the regular season. The team's other statistical leaders included wide receiver Mauricio Santos with 650 receiving yards, running back Alejandro Cruz with 197 rushing yards, and kicker Leonardo Guajardo with 72 points scored (45 extra points, nine field goals).[5]
