The Big South Conference has announced their fall 2021 football schedule. Conference play begins on Saturday, Sept. 18 with Monmouth at Charleston Southern.
For the fall 2021 season, the Big South Conference will consist of eight eligible football members – Campbell, Charleston Southern, Gardner-Webb, Hampton, Kennesaw State, Monmouth, North Carolina A&T, and Robert Morris.
Each eligible team will play a seven-game conference schedule which will determine the Big South’s qualifier for the FCS Playoffs. The North Alabama Lions, currently in a transitional status until the 2022 season, will play a Big South schedule but their games will not count in the standings.
The fall 2021 FCS Playoffs are scheduled to begin on Saturday, Nov. 27, 2021 with eight first-round matchups.
Two previously unannounced non-conference matchups were also revealed today through Big South school releases: Mercer at Charleston Southern on Thursday, Sept. 2 and North Carolina A&T at South Carolina State on Saturday, Nov. 13.
