@azvalpo The VUL athletics website does not list NCAA DIII or NAIA affiliation. Only NCCAA (National Christian Collegiate Conference) and HBCU. In addition to Valpo as their opening game in 2025, they conclude the season against Sacred Heart. They also play Texas Southern. In 2024 their results were all over the place: 40+ point wins and 40+ losses. Some of their opponents I had never heard of.

When I first saw the post regarding the game, I thought is was Lynchburg College which is a different school and doesn't have a football program. This school has 750 students and appears as if it is more an extended HS for faith based students with few opportunities elsewhere.
Every school they played last year that I had heard of beat them pretty handily.
Faith based college , more of an extended high school, not part of ncaa, lost every game by 50 last year
now where have we seen this before?

Hold on 16. VUL is not THAT bad. 🙄 They actually went 2-8 last season with wins over Atlantis (45-0) and SC Central Christian (64-6) and ‘close’ losses to Texas Southern (10-28) and Livingstone (9-37). Additionally, they opened strongly against Wagner with a 7-45 loss and Wagner is scholly FCS. They are an accredited college, unlike the team we beat 80-0 from Missouri under Cecchini that has since been expunged from our record book 😉
Ah, yeah, they’re bad.
That was the College of Faith (Arkansas) in 2015, and we won 86-0. Virginia University Lynchburg seems like a more legit school, as they have been around since 1888, and 1996 in its current form.
