<P> Starting in 2014, the FBS began playing a four - team tournament culminating in a National Championship Game to determine its national champion, a system that will be in place from the 2014 - 2025 seasons by contract with ESPN, broadcaster of the games . Formerly, Division I FBS football was the only NCAA sport without a formal tournament to determine an undisputed national champion, with the FBS schools instead playing in a series of postseason bowl games, culminating in the BCS National Championship Game, which attempted to crown a single national champion . Other organizations, most notably the Associated Press, crowned their own champions via polling . The BCS and AP have not always agreed on a single champion . Before the BCS, the AP was considered to be the deciding body for crowning a Champion, but it was started as a regional voting body, much like every other organization before the BCS . Most of the years preceding the BCS era, the Championships were claimed by more than one school . </P> <P> Conference affiliations are current for the 2017 season . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Team </Th> <Th> Nickname </Th> <Th> City </Th> <Th> State </Th> <Th> Current Conference </Th> <Th> Former Conferences </Th> <Th> First Played </Th> <Th> Joined FBS </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Air Force </Td> <Td> Falcons </Td> <Td> Colorado Springs </Td> <Td> Colorado </Td> <Td> Mountain West </Td> <Td> WAC </Td> <Td> 1955 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Akron </Td> <Td> Zips </Td> <Td> Akron </Td> <Td> Ohio </Td> <Td> MAC </Td> <Td> OAC, MCC, OVC </Td> <Td> 1891 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> Crimson Tide </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> SEC </Td> <Td> SIAA, SoCon </Td> <Td> 1892 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> UAB </Td> <Td> Blazers </Td> <Td> Birmingham </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> C - USA </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 1991 </Td> <Td> 1999 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Appalachian State </Td> <Td> Mountaineers </Td> <Td> Boone </Td> <Td> North Carolina </Td> <Td> Sun Belt </Td> <Td> NSC, SoCon </Td> <Td> 1928 </Td> <Td> 2014 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Arizona </Td> <Td> Wildcats </Td> <Td> Tucson </Td> <Td> Arizona </Td> <Td> Pac - 12 </Td> <Td> BIAA, WAC </Td> <Td> 1899 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Arizona State </Td> <Td> Sun Devils </Td> <Td> Tempe </Td> <Td> Arizona </Td> <Td> Pac - 12 </Td> <Td> BIAA, WAC </Td> <Td> 1896 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Arkansas </Td> <Td> Razorbacks </Td> <Td> Fayetteville </Td> <Td> Arkansas </Td> <Td> SEC </Td> <Td> SWC </Td> <Td> 1894 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Arkansas State </Td> <Td> Red Wolves </Td> <Td> Jonesboro </Td> <Td> Arkansas </Td> <Td> Sun Belt </Td> <Td> Arkansas Intercollegiate Conference, Southland, Big West </Td> <Td> 1911 </Td> <Td> 1992 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Army West Point </Td> <Td> Black Knights </Td> <Td> West Point </Td> <Td> New York </Td> <Td> Independent </Td> <Td> C - USA </Td> <Td> 1890 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Auburn </Td> <Td> Tigers </Td> <Td> Auburn </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> SEC </Td> <Td> SIAA, SoCon </Td> <Td> 1892 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Ball State </Td> <Td> Cardinals </Td> <Td> Muncie </Td> <Td> Indiana </Td> <Td> MAC </Td> <Td> IIC, ICC </Td> <Td> 1924 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Baylor </Td> <Td> Bears </Td> <Td> Waco </Td> <Td> Texas </Td> <Td> Big 12 </Td> <Td> TIAA, SWC </Td> <Td> 1899 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Boise State </Td> <Td> Broncos </Td> <Td> Boise </Td> <Td> Idaho </Td> <Td> Mountain West </Td> <Td> ICAC, Big Sky, Big West, WAC </Td> <Td> 1933 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Boston College </Td> <Td> Eagles </Td> <Td> Chestnut Hill </Td> <Td> Massachusetts </Td> <Td> ACC </Td> <Td> Big East </Td> <Td> 1893 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Bowling Green </Td> <Td> Falcons </Td> <Td> Bowling Green </Td> <Td> Ohio </Td> <Td> MAC </Td> <Td> Northwest Ohio Intercollegiate Athletic Association, OAC </Td> <Td> 1919 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Buffalo </Td> <Td> Bulls </Td> <Td> Buffalo </Td> <Td> New York </Td> <Td> MAC </Td> <Td> New York State Conference </Td> <Td> 1894 </Td> <Td> 1999 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Brigham Young!
