2025 FCS College Football Conference Standings

Last updated: Tuesday, January 20, 2026 - final ratings I will be updating this page by each Monday night during the season. These ratings are based on a mathematical formula that includes several factors, including win-loss record, schedule strength, and margin of victory in games. The most recent games are counted with more slightly emphasis than those played earlier in the season. PF = points for PA = points against * = ineligible for postseason play ** = ineligible for conference championship and postseason play
