Every current FBS team's most recent win over a FBS conference champion

History

It's the offseason again, which means it's time to post more weirdly specific stats that don't really mean much. So here is the most recent time each FBS team has defeated another FBS team who won their conference in the same season.

Rules:

  • These can be in-conference or out-of-conference games, as long as the opponent is the champion of a FBS conference.

  • The opponent has to be a conference champion in the season the game is played. Whether or not they had clinched the conference championship at the time of the game is irrelevant.

  • Any and all co-champions are counted.

  • Stats only go back to 1978 (when the FBS was established as a separate subdivision).

I have also listed the conference that the defeated team was the champion of in that given year.
