Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:For Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox NCAA Division I FCS season The 2022 NCAA Division I FCS football season, part of college football in the United States, is organized by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) at the Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) level. The regular season began on August 27 and ended on November 19. The postseason began on November 26, and, aside from any all-star games that are scheduled, ended on January 8, 2023, with the 2023 NCAA Division I Football Championship Game at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas.[1]
Conference changes and new programs
Membership changes for 2022
In addition to the listed membership changes, one current FCS member changed its institutional identity before the 2022 season. Dixie State University changed its forward-facing name to Utah Tech University on May 15, 2022, ahead of the legal name change on July 1. The athletic nickname remains Trailblazers.
In November 2021, Incarnate Word announced a move to the Western Athletic Conference for the 2022 season.[2] Days before officially joining, on June 24, the school backed out of that plan, recommitting to the Southland Conference.[3]
On April 8, the Southland Conference (SLC) announced that Lamar, one of four Texas schools that had left the SLC in 2021 to join the Western Athletic Conference, would return to the SLC in 2023.[4] On July 11, 2022, Lamar announced it would accelerate its SLC return to the 2022–23 academic year.[5]
Future membership changes
- On February 22, 2022, the Big South Conference and Ohio Valley Conference announced that they would merge their football leagues effective in 2023. Certain key details of the merger—specifically, whether the merged league would be run by the Big South or OVC, or become a separate entity—have yet to be announced.[6]
- The same day also saw North Carolina A&T announce it would leave the Big South to join the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA). A&T's non-football sports joined the CAA on July 1, 2022, while football will join the technically separate entity of CAA Football in 2023.[7]
- On April 4, the Missouri Valley Football Conference announced that Murray State would join that conference in 2023. Murray State left the OVC for the non-football Missouri Valley Conference, a separate entity from the MVFC (though closely related), in July 2022, but remained in OVC football for the 2022 season.[8]
- On August 3, the CAA announced that Big South member Campbell would join both sides of the league in 2023.[9]
- On October 14, Conference USA announced that Kennesaw State would start a transition to FBS after the 2022 football season[10] and join C-USA in 2024.[11]
- On December 20, the ASUN Conference and Western Athletic Conference, which had entered into a football-only partnership in 2021, announced that they would fully merge their football leagues effective in 2023. The new conference, tentatively known as the ASUN–WAC Football Conference, will feature ASUN members Austin Peay, Central Arkansas, Eastern Kentucky, and North Alabama, plus WAC members Abilene Christian, Southern Utah, Stephen F. Austin, Tarleton, and Utah Tech. The new football conference will play a six-game conference schedule in 2023 before starting round-robin play in 2024.[12]
Rule changes
The following rule changes were recommended by the NCAA Football Rules Committee for the 2022 season.[13]
- When players are disqualified for a targeting call in the second half or in overtime (which requires a carryover penalty of sitting out the first half of the next scheduled game), an appeals process will be available to allow the National Coordinator of Officials (currently Steve Shaw) to review tapes of the targeting penalty for consideration of not requiring the player to sit out the first half of the following game.
- Injury timeouts awarded due to "deceptive actions" during a game will also be able to reviewed by the National Coordinator of Officials to determine what sanctions, if any, against teams who use this tactic, enforced at the conference or school level.
- Blocking below the waist will only be permitted inside the tackle box by linemen and stationary backs. Blocks below the waist outside of the tackle box are not allowed.
- Defensive holding will remain a 10-yard penalty but will always carry an automatic first down.
- Codifying the rule change made shortly after the 2021 ACC Championship Game, ball carriers who simulate a feet-first slide will be declared down at that spot.
- Uniform rules would require the sock/leg covering to go from the shoe to the bottom of the pants, similar to the NFL rule.
Other headlines
- May 18 – The ASUN Conference and Western Athletic Conference announced that they had renewed their football alliance from the 2021 season. Each conference had 6 football members eligible for the 2022 FCS playoffs, the minimum number needed for an automatic playoff bid, but dropped to 5 such members with Jacksonville State (ASUN) and Sam Houston (WAC) starting FBS transitions in 2022, rendering them ineligible for the playoffs. The WAC's playoff-eligible membership later dropped to 3 when Incarnate Word backed out of its planned move to the WAC and Lamar accelerated its return to the Southland Conference to 2022. The 8 other members eventually competed for a single automatic berth in the FCS playoffs.[14]
- June 2 – Police in Pocatello, Idaho announced that they had arrested Idaho State assistant coach DaVonte' Neal on May 25 at the request of the Maricopa County, Arizona sheriff's office on a warrant that includes a charge of first-degree murder in connection with a 2017 drive-by shooting. Neal was placed on administrative leave, with termination proceedings ongoing.[15]
- August 31 – The Division I Board of Directors adopted a series of changes to transfer rules.[16]
- Transfer windows were adopted for all Division I sports. Student-athletes who wish to be immediately eligible at their next school must enter the NCAA transfer portal within the designated period(s) for their sport. For FCS football, two windows were established: a 45-day window starting the day after postseason selections are made, and a spring window from May 1–15. Accommodations will be made for participants in the FCS championship game.
- Student-athletes who experience head coaching changes, or those whose athletic aid is reduced, canceled, or not renewed, may transfer outside designated windows without penalty.
- Transferring student-athletes will be guaranteed their financial aid at their next school through graduation.
- September 21 – Houston Baptist University announced a name change to Houston Christian University. The nickname of Huskies was not affected.[17]
- December 9
- ESPN reported that the ASUN and WAC had agreed to form a new football-only conference that plans to start play in 2024. The initial football membership would consist of Austin Peay, Central Arkansas, Eastern Kentucky, and North Alabama from the ASUN, and Abilene Christian, Southern Utah, Stephen F. Austin, Tarleton, and Utah Tech from the WAC. UTRGV would become the 10th member upon its planned addition of football in 2025. The new football conference also reportedly plans to move "from what is currently known as FCS football to what is currently known as FBS football at the earliest practicable date."[18] The ASUN and WAC confirmed the football merger, though not plans for an FBS move, on December 20.
- In the highest-scoring game in FCS playoff history, Incarnate Word defeated previously unbeaten Sacramento State 66–63. UIW quarterback Lindsey Scott Jr. threw four touchdown passes to bring his season total to 59, surpassing the previous FCS record of 57 held by Jeremiah Briscoe of Sam Houston in 2016.[19] Scott ended the season with 60, having thrown one TD pass in UIW's 35–32 semifinal loss to North Dakota State.[20]
