Message: [QUOTE="billybud, post: 2975258, member: 3850"] Sometimes, "moving up", is not moving up...like from FCS to FBS "Analyses have been done regarding the football success of teams that have reclassified and there have been 28 such teams from 1978-2016. The results for those, on average, have not been good. The average winning percentage dropped from 58% in the FCS to 46% in FBS. Similarly, those teams had winning seasons 65.6% of the time in FCS and only 36.5% of the time in the FBS. With the exceptions of Boise State, Nevada and Appalachian State, the football fortunes of teams that have reclassified have been fairly poor._ [/QUOTE]
