(STATS) - It's odd how a conference that set the FCS record for the most qualifiers in a single playoff would have something to prove the following year.

But CAA Football disappointed in the 2018 playoffs even with regular-season champion Maine advancing to the semifinals for the first time. Four of the six qualifiers lost in the first round and James Madison was out after the second round.

Time to regroup? Somewhat, but the CAA usually reloads as one of the elite FCS conferences, and the depth of quality teams is there again in 2019.
