Nope! Not even close.

Idaho State is tied for 85th among 125 FCS teams on the current Gridiron Power Index.

Catamounts barely made it, though, coming in at #101.

It should come as no surprise that the non-schollie Pioneer League - with six - has more teams in the bottom 25 than any other league, but they only beat the NEC - with five - by one.

Every conference has at least one team in the bottom twenty five except the CAA, the Big Sky and the Southland. Here is the box score:

Pioneer - 6
Northeastern - 5
SWAC - 3
MEAC - 2
Missouri valley - 1
Ohio valley - 1
Southern - 1
Ivy - 1
Patriot - 1
CAA - 0
Big Sky - 0
Southland - 0

Here are the bottom 25 FCS teams according to this week's GPI:
101 W Carolina SOCON
102 SE Missouri St OVC
103T Howard MEAC
103T Wagner NEC
105 Dartmouth IVY
106 Sacred Heart NEC
107 Bucknell PL
108 Marist PFL
109 TX Southern SWAC
110 St Francis PA NEC
111 Duquesne NEC
112 Presbyterian BSO
113 W Salem St MEAC
114 Jacksonville PFL
