The 2022 FCS season was full of surprises, some a lot more welcome than others. Several teams had runs to remember but several others had campaigns they’d just as soon forget.

10. Villanova Wildcats
Final Record: 6-5 (4-4 CAA)
The 2021 season was one of the best in recent memory for the Wildcats as they secured a seed and made it to the quarterfinals and it was expected to be very similar this year for ‘Nova, especially with conference powerhouse JMU now gone.
