Athlon has compiled a list of the FCS teams with the top winning percentage in the 20 years from 2000 through 2019. (LINK)Curiously, the list included five teams that did not play the entire span in the FCS before moving up to the FBS ranks, including two that played just one season at the FCS level. Given that it seems absurd to include South Florida's winning percentage from a 7-4 record and Troy State's from a 9-3 record I've taken the liberty of removing all five teams that departed the FCS before 2019.
With that out of the way, here are the FCS schools with the best winning percentage since 2000:
1. North Dakota State, 181-35 (.838)
2. Old Dominion*, 46-14 (.767)
3. Kennesaw State, 48-15 (.762)
4. HARVARD, 150-49 (.754)
5. Montana, 198-67 (.747)
6. Dayton, 162-59 (.733)
7. San Diego, 160-63 (.717)
8. James Madison, 170-82 (.675)
9. McNeese, 155-76 (.671)
10. Bethune-Cookman, 151-75 (.668)
11. Jacksonville State, 156-79 (.664)
12. Grambling State, 155-79 (.662)
13. Eastern Washington, 164-84 (.661)
14. Central Arkansas, 109-57 (.657)
15. Northern Iowa, 166-87 (.656)
16. Duquesne, 142-78 (.645)
17. Wofford, 154-86 (.642)
18. PENN, 127-72 (.638)
19. Sam Houston State, 158-91 (.635)
Now, I'm sure you are wondering about Dartmouth, right?
The Big Green's record over the 20-year span: 91-108 (.455).
As it turns out, the years 2000-2019 perfectly tell the story of two remarkably distinct eras of Big Green football:
2000-2009 Dartmouth football record: 21-78 (.212)
2010-2019 Dartmouth football record: 70-30 (.700)
Between 2000 and 2009 the Big Green did not have a single winning record with a 5-5 finish in 2003 the only non-losing season.
From 2010 through 2019 Dartmouth has had just one losing record, a 4-6 mark in 2016.
Green Alert Take: I would gladly have taken the time to compile the 20-year records for every Ivy League team but the conference's football record book still has not been updated since the end of the 2017 season!
As for the schools that left the FCS but Athlon included in its list, here is where they placed along with their records:
5. Troy State*, 9-3 (.750)
9. Appalachian State*, 131-52 (.716)
10. Western Kentucky*, 61-26 (.701)
11. Coastal Carolina*, 114-54 (.679)
12. Georgia Southern*, 119-57 (.676)
24. South Florida*, 7-4 (.635)

EXTRA POINT
Watching news reports about the long-awaited launch of Americans into space from American soil, I've found myself snickering at the seriously strange space suits the astronauts will wear. Honestly, add a few feathers and they'd look like something Elton John would wear.But maybe I'm being too harsh.
I remember how ridiculous it seemed when football officials switched from knickers to long pants in 2012. Now if you were to see an official trot out on the field looking like the fellow off to the side you might laugh.
Maybe those astronaut uniforms will grow on me ;-)
