The Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) includes the conferences and institutions that compete in the NCAA Division I Football Championship, in addition to two conferences who choose not to participate in the football championship, the Ivy League and the Southwestern Athletic Conference. The FCS embodies a tradition of excellence through high level competition, student-athlete character and sportsmanship throughout the regular season and the championship experience.

How many seats are they reserving for each school? Anyone know?

I could see a Texas school, is they made it all the way, needing close to 10,000 seats, while some of the traditional FCS powers that are farther away could probably use 3-5K, and a school like Villanova would need at least 250.

All the midfield seats are gone already.

The best available seats now are down on the sidelines near the endzones. Hopefully that's a good sign.

Surely those are being reserved for the schools, no? I mean, they wouldn't sell the whole stadium before the participant schools were given a fair shot at at least some allotment would they?

And Delaware's AD will only request 1k. ;)

I would imagine some of them are. Also probably for sponsors, etc...

But the only seats available are essentially into the corners and then the endzones. Hopefully that means someone has been buying up the other "sideline" seats.

About 2 weeks ago, I purchased midfield tickets in section 126. I had received an "exclusive pre-sale" e-mail. I feel better about my purchase if those seats are no longer available. :thumb:

I hope that means they sold a good amount pre-sale.
