(Stats Perform) - A small number of FCS schools are scheduled to play nonconference games this fall, including against FBS opponents, after all 13 conferences postponed their league competition due to concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic. Most of the 127 FCS programs hope to play the majority of their schedule during the spring semester, but 15 programs - about 12 percent - had nonconference games scheduled for the fall semester as of Monday. Austin Peay and Central Arkansas are scheduled to meet in college football's first game, the FCS Kickoff on Aug. 29 in Montgomery, Alabama.
