The Southern Conference (or SoCon) is a college athletic conference
affiliated with the NCAA’s Division I. SoCon football teams compete in
the Division I Football Championship Subdivision (formerly known as
I-AA). Member institutions are located in the states of Georgia, North
Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee. Formed in 1921 as a result of a
split from the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association, the
Southern Conference ranks as the fourth oldest major college athletic
conference in the United States.
Charter members included Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Georgia, Georgia
Tech, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi State, North Carolina, North
Carolina State, Tennessee, Virginia, Virginia Tech, and Washington & Lee.
The SoCon is particularly notable for having spawned two other major
conferences. In 1933, 13 schools located south and west of the
Appalachians (Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kentucky,
LSU, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Sewanee, Tennessee, Tulane, and
Vanderbilt) departed the SoCon to form the Southeastern Conference. In
1953, seven schools (Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, NC State,
South Carolina, and Wake Forest) withdrew from the SoCon to form the
Atlantic Coast Conference.
