Seems like there are too many FBS schools in North Carolina.

Georgia has a bunch today also.  NC has a four in the ACC, so a "major" conference.  I guess ECU is FBS now, Charlotte?

I don't keep up.

Coastal is also FBS now. There may be more. I lose track.

There is one in Wisconsin.

There are a lot down here. UF, UM, FSU, UCF, USF, FIU, FAU. Maybe more? I know FGCU has aspirations, but I'll be dead before that happens.

Texas has 13.  I wonder which state has the most per capita?  Ohio has a lot for its population, as I recall.  North Carolina has a lot as pointed out above.

Texas FBS schools:

UT, A&M, Texas Tech, Baylor, TCU, SMU, Rice, Houston, North Texas, UTEP, UTSA, Texas State, Sam Houston State.

Gotta be Texas or Ohio.

it's not Iowa, Nebraska, or either of the Dakotas

Definitely not Texas. 30M people and 13 schools is about 1 school per 2.3M people.

Indiana is up there. 4 FBS schools and 6.85M people, or 1 per 1.7M.  

North Carolina is 7 FBS in 10.84M people, or 1 per 1.55M.

But it looks like Ohio has 8 FBS schools in 11.8M people, or 1 per 1.48M.

Not sure there are any states that I can think of that would challenge Ohio on this one.
