The NEC is ranked at 10th out of 13 FCS conferences with some provisos:


10. Northeast Conference 


The good - The conference's stature has risen as football scholarship amounts have gone up (in 2014, the NEC went 5-2 against CAA Football teams). Duquesne is favored to defend its title and the return of key quarterbacks in the conference could mean this ranking is too low. 


The bad and the ugly - Road games out of conference are a good thing. Duquesne's home attendance average was the lowest in the FCS with Robert Morris, Saint Francis and Wagner also among the five smallest.
