There are over 120 FCS vs. FBS games scheduled for the 2025 college football season. These games are an integral part of the operating budget for FCS programs, but are also excellent opportunities to make a splash with a massive upset on a national stage.

Last season, there were six FCS over FBS upsets, an increase from the four upsets during the 2023 season. From 2009 to 2018, there were five or more FBS upsets each season, including a season-high 16 upsets in 2013. Despite the success, there have not been 10 or more FCS over FBS upsets since 2021.

Below is the payout for every FCS vs. FBS matchup. The list will be updated as more payouts become available.
