Rankings from AP Poll

The 2022 Sun Belt Conference football season is the 22nd season of college football play for the Sun Belt Conference (SBC). The season began on September 2, 2022, and will conclude with its conference championship game on December 3, 2022. It is part of the 2022 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The conference expanded to 14 football members for the 2022 season with the addition of 4 new member schools. The 14 members were divided into two divisions for play. The conference released its schedule on March 1, 2022.[1]

Previous season

[edit]
Main article: 2021 Sun Belt Conference football season

The 2021 season saw Appalachian State win the East Division, while Louisiana won the West Division. In the Conference Championship game, Louisiana took victory by a score of 24–16. Louisiana advanced to the New Orleans Bowl, where they defeated Marshall.[2] Appalachian State advanced to the Boca Raton Bowl, where they lost to Western Kentucky.[3]

Coastal Carolina and Georgia State also reached bowl games, with both winning their games.

Conference expansion

[edit]

Prior to the 2022 season, the SBC added four new schools as full members: Marshall, Old Dominion, and Southern Miss, previously from Conference USA, and James Madison, previously from the Colonial Athletic Association at the Division I FCS level. The initial intent was for the schools to begin playing in the conference starting no later that July 1, 2023.[4] However, all four teams elected to join for the 2022 season, with the move officially announced with the release of the conference's 2022 schedule.[1]

For the 2022 season, James Madison is ineligible for both the conference championship and for bowl games due to its transition from the FCS level to FBS level. Due to JMU meeting FBS scheduling requirements for the 2022 season, specifically five home games against FBS opponents, it was able to skip one year of the normal two-year transition process, making it eligible for both the SBC title and bowl games beginning with the 2023 season.[5]

  2. ^ James Madison was not bowl eligible due to NCAA rules regarding teams transitioning between the FCS and FBS levels
