For the third time in four seasons, the SEC has the ignominious distinction of being the Power Five conference with the most games against FCS opponents. The SEC has 14 such games, with each league member playing one.
The SEC also had the most in 2014 and ’16 (tied with the ACC). In addition, this is the sixth season in a row SEC schools have at least 13 games against FCS opponents.
In addition, while SEC teams play the second-most non-conference games against other Power Five opponents (16), that is just 28.6 percent of the league’s non-conference contests.
