I graduated from a "small" school who plays FCS football in NC (Western Carolina University). Budgets at that level necessitate playing out of your league both literally and figuratively. Over the past 4 or 5 years they have played quite a few SEC schools including multiple games against Alabama and Auburn to go along with playing in a pretty high-level FCS conference (Southern). The year that stands out for me was 2015 when they played both Tennessee and Texas A&M. That is a tall order for an FCS school, but paid a lot of bills and funded a fair amount of scholarships.Posted On: Apr 18th 2017, 3:38 PM #368381
Nice school, my daughter graduated from Brevard College and played softball there and another daughter had a HS Marching band competition at WCU! Nice little stadium too!
