The SWAC and MEAC schools aren’t even particularly competitive within FCS.

I don’t want to go do the research, but I’ll bet it has been many, many years since either conference has produced an NCAA quarterfinalist ..... and “lackluster” would probably flatter their FCS playoff record in recent decades.

The competitive gap is just too wide in football. This is more feasible in basketball, and I think there were rumors within the past year that we do have a home-and-home upcoming with Howard ..... not sure whether true.

The SWAC and MEAC have registered some impressive NCAA tournament upsets over high seeds: Southern over Georgia Tech, Coppin State over South Carolina, Hampton over Iowa State, Norfolk State over Missouri all come to mind. And there may have been additional ones.
