Pioneer League Preview 2025

 

The Pioneer League officially has a playoff bid to the FCS playoffs. In 2024 Drake took first place and lost in the Playoffs at Tarleton State, 29-43. I think each year the conference is getting more competitive. It would be interesting to see the IVY League and the Pioneer League play each other more in the regular season. The question in 2025 is can Drake pull off a "three-peat" !? Every season each team is getting better with the transfer portal and great academics. In 2023 it was St Thomas knocking on the door, and in 2024 it was San Diego. Best of luck to every team in the Pioneer League in 2025.
