Conference USA enters 2026 as one of the more open Group of Five races, with preseason projections and media polls highlighting Liberty, Western Kentucky, Jacksonville State, Kennesaw State, and Delaware as the primary contenders. Liberty returns as the consensus favorite despite a 4-8 finish in 2025, while defending champion Kennesaw State faces significant roster turnover after its title run. Jacksonville State and Western Kentucky bring strong recent form and returning production at key positions, and Delaware benefits from high overall retention plus an established quarterback in its second FBS season. This parity in roster continuity, coaching continuity, and schedule strength keeps implied probabilities tightly clustered, reflecting broad trader consensus on the absence of a clear frontrunner.
