Thought I'd list some fun stats. This is the records of the FCS conferences versus out-of-conference FCS schools (No FBS, no D2 games).
Winning record vs other FCS
Missouri Valley: 23-1 (Wow)
Colonial Athletic: 19-9
Big South: 13-4
Patriot: 14-12

Sub .500 vs other FCS
Big Sky: 8-9
Southland: 8-9
SoCon: 5-7
Ohio Valley: 6-9
Ivy: 4-9
NEC: 9-15
SWAC: 2-8
Pioneer: 4-14
MEAC: 4-15

Found this interesting.

I wish there was a Patriot, MEAC, SWAC, NEC, Ivy, and more than one Pioneer out west.

Since we're on this road I'll list the Sagarin FCS (AA) conference strength rankings. Of course the idea is that they consider not only what your record is but also how strong the opposition was. Only thing is I don't know if the rankings are based entirely on what's happened this season yet. Sagarin used to indicate whether or not he'd reached that point yet but as far as I can tell he doesn't anymore. Should be close to that if not there yet though.

MISSOURI VALLEY
COLONIAL
SOUTHLAND
BIG SKY
OHIO VALLEY
SOUTHERN
IVY LEAGUE
BIG SOUTH
PATRIOT
I-AA INDEPENDENTS
NORTHEAST
MID-EASTERN
SWAC-EAST
SWAC-WEST
PIONEER

Genuinely surprised that the Southland came out that high, though, due to Incarnate Word and Houston Baptist being in it now.

How the heck is the SLC in front of the Big Sky after their FBS defections?!?

Seems about right. Those are the best four conferences in I-AA.

That wasn't a computer ranking.

Fourth. Seems about right. SoCon sucks, Southland is done now that SHSU seems to have fallen on Keeler times. Who else is there? Ivy?

And that "1" is UM's victory over USD.

Just be glad there's not a MVFC in the East.

There is. You cowboys need to make up your mind as to what is east and what is west.

Well, if MVFC is East, then so is OVC.

That's because they get to come through the East bracket where there's no other competition.
