Orlando Sentinel's college insider Matt Murschel ranked all 125 FBS
Each day a new College Football team is ranked and followed with a brief article about the new revealed team. I am assuming ODU will be include, only because the 125th team is Georgia State. College football season countdown: We rank 'em 125-1
The Orlando Sentinel's college insider Matt Murschel has ranked all 125 Football Bowl Subdivision teams in the country entering the 2013 season.
The Sentinel staff will take a closer look at a new team daily, counting backward from No. 125 to our projected No. 1 team.

I'm not 100% but I think 125 was the number of FBS programs without us. Once us GSU & App St come on it will be 128 and then 129 with Charlotte. Assuming the Sunbelt replaces WKU with an FCS move up there will be 130.
So I doubt we'll be included in this listing this year. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I think you may be correct, as ODU is still technically FCS this year, completing the transition year and won't be FBS until next year. GA State did their transition year last year, didn't they? So, they would be fully FBS this year. Too bad, I was excited to see where we would land. On another note... GA State wouldn't land much higher on a ranking of FCS teams!

WKU has been FBS for years now.

ODUTB - - I think you misread his post. With WKU moving from the Sunbelt to C-USA, it makes room for one more school to transtion, and any FCS school moving up to the Sunbelt to replace WKU will become the 130th FBS school.
Don't know if I made it any clearer, but tried to be of assistance!
