United Athletic Conference (UAC)-(FCS)
Overview: The inaugural season of the United Athletic Conference (UAC) proved to be a memorable one for the Austin Peay Governors, as they overcame a 0-2 start to their 2023 season by winning nine straight games, and the first-ever conference crown after finishing unbeaten in league play at 6-0.
In the FCS playoffs, Chattanooga heartbreakingly ended Austin Peay's season, as the Mocs shocked the Governors on a last-second field goal at 24-21. Austin Peay's season ended at 9-3 after losing to Chattanooga at home.
Going into the 2024 season, there will be tremendous changes in the UAC's membership, with Stephen F. Austin announcing that it was returning to the Southland Conference after spending the last several seasons in what was previously known as the Atlantic Sun-WAC Alliance.
Also, the University of West Georgia Wolves will begin their transition to the FCS ranks after spending more than four decades playing at the NCAA Division II level this fall. The Carrollton, Georgia-based institution had been a member of the Gulf South Conference since 1983, advancing to postseason play nine times during their D-II tenure.
In the meantime, expect Austin Peay to defend their UAC title, with Central Arkansas (7-4, 4-2) and Tarleton State (8-3, 4-2) being among the challengers for this year's crown. Don't count out Eastern Kentucky (5-6, 4-2) or Southern (6-5, 4-2) either.
