A Complete Record of FBS (I-A) vs. FCS (I-AA)

Post Highlights

• FBS schools currently hold a 1740-388-17 (.815) all-time record vs. FCS schools.

• The FBS school with the most victories over FCS opponents is Army (51 wins).

• The FBS school with the most losses to FCS opponents is Louisiana-Lafayette (20 losses).

• Notre Dame, UCLA, USC, and Washington have never played a FCS level school.

• New Hampshire has a 7-4-1 record vs. FBS opponents.  The best record (W Pct.) vs. the FBS by any program currently in the FCS.

• Buffalo is the only current FBS school to have a losing record vs. FCS opponents (2-4).

• As a FCS school Appalachian State has the most victories over major FBS opponents (8 wins).

 

Every season schools from the FBS level schedule schools from the FCS level.  Usually the games result in an easy victory for the FBS school, and a nice paycheck for the FCS school.  But sometimes the FCS school pulls off an upset.  Listed below are the records FBS schools have against FCS opponents, the records FCS schools have against FBS opponents, and a listing of upsets by FCS schools over major FBS programs.

Important Classification Information

In 1978 the NCAA split Division I football into two levels.  All records go back to that split.  The only games counted were the ones where a then FBS program played a then FCS program.  Meaning Appalachian State’s victories over I-A (FBS) schools from 1978-81 weren’t counted, because Appalachian State was a I-A (FBS) member during those years.  It’s important to emphasize I only counted games involving FBS vs. FCS.  Meaning Western Kentucky’s 87-0 victory over West Virginia Tech wasn’t counted because W.V. Tech wasn’t a member of the FCS. Click here to see a complete record of FBS (I-A) vs. Division II/III & NAIA

I did count FBS (I-A) / FCS (I-AA) probationary seasons as full FBS (I-A) / FCS (I-AA) seasons.
