FCS football teams have a fun history against FBS opponents, but upsetting a No. 1-ranked FBS squad has been too high of a hurdle.
There have been 19 all-time matchups between an FCS football program and the No. 1-ranked FBS team in the Associated Press poll.
Not surprisingly, the FCS has yet to pull an upset.
The closest result was Georgia Southern falling at Georgia 45-21 on Aug. 30, 2008.
Most recently in 2025, Grambling State fell 70-0 to Ohio State, which also was the 2024 College Football Playoff champion.
