Each team in FBS has played at least half of their regular season schedule at this point. As a result, some G5 teams have had notably fast starts and secured bowl eligibility faster than other programs. Of course, the rest of the field still has a chance at this point to secure a game beyond the regular season, but the second half of the season always comes with some fairly intense challenges.
