More seeds result in less regionalization, more balanced early-round matchups, and more transparency on who hosts in the first round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a glimpse at the new format, we used the Stats Perform FCS Preseason Top 25 Media Poll and preseason conference polls to form a preseason bracket.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

The Bracket<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Instead of first-round host sites being determined by a combination of bid amount, revenue potential, facilities, athlete experience, and team performance, seeds 9-16 will host the remaining unseeded teams based on proximity. The No. 1 seed plays the winner of the No. 16 vs. unseeded matchup, the No. 2 seed plays the winner of the No. 15 vs. unseeded matchup, and so on.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
