FBS Conference Belt The Sun Belt Belt

The Sun Belt Belt

A companion lineage restricted to Sun Belt: the belt passes to whoever beats the holder, exactly like the real belt, but only games between two Sun Belt members COUNT — and only for the seasons both sides were actually in Sun Belt at the time. Caught it by beating Louisiana on October 11, 2025. Defended it 6 more times since.
