Notes

  1. The Division I-A, I-AA and I-AAA designations were confusing and as a result, misapplied by the public, boosters and media when referring not only to their local football programs but also to other sports such as basketball. The Division I Board of Directors, composed of Division I presidents and chancellors voted on the change in August 2006. The Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly I-A) includes those programs that compete in an effort to participate in the postseason bowl system. The NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (formerly I-AA) includes those programs that compete in an effort to participate in the NCAA championship postseason structure (one of the 88 NCAA national championships). NCAA.org
  2. Drake competes in the Football Championship Subdivision of Division I.
  3. The yellow color is used only when Drake reaches a bowl but does not hold a share in the conference title. In any case that Drake has a share of the conference championship, the green color is used.
  4. The blue color is used only when Drake receives a playoff berth but does not hold a share in the conference title. In any case that Drake has a share of the conference championship, the green color is used.
  5. Overtime rules in college football were introduced in 1996, making ties impossible.
  6. Since the 1978 split in divisions, the NCAA, or more recently, The Sports Network Poll has been the major poll at the FCS level.
  7. The FCS Coaches Poll was introduced in 2007. Therefore, polls for prior seasons do not exist.
  8. Drake counts a tie against its alumni team as a tie. Other sources do not. The tie total without the alumni game is 0.
  9. Drake counts a win against its alumni team as a win. The Missouri Valley Conference does not. The win total without the alumni game is 5.
  10. Drake counts a win against its alumni team as a win. The Missouri Valley Conference does not. The win total without the alumni game is 6.
  11. Drake counts a win against its alumni team as a win. The Missouri Valley Conference does not. The win total without the alumni game is 2.
  12. Drake counts a win against its alumni team as a win. The Missouri Valley Conference does not. The win total without the alumni game is 4.
