Didn't think this would happen so soon.

Big Ten to stop scheduling FCS schools.

ummm, no offense, but this came out months ago that the B1G was going to stop scheduling FCS schools. the thought was that this would trickle down to the rest of the conferences and would be a nail in the coffin of the FCS as a whole

One AD mentioned it months ago, this was voted on last week making it official, big difference.

That link didn't work for me. I think this is it though.

"The league's athletic directors and presidents also approved a scheduling model that includes at least one team from a major FBS conference per year and no FCS teams. Delany hopes the model will be in place league-wide by 2016."

Saint is right, it was just a strong rumor until now.If the SEC and ACC do this there are some FCS programs that will be in trouble. Looks more and more like APP got out just in time.
