The 2019 Colonial Athletic Association football season was the thirteenth season of football for the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) and part of the 2019 NCAA Division I FCS football season.
Despite being picked eighth in the preseason poll, Maine won the CAA championship outright with a conference record of 7–1. They were joined in the FCS playoffs by James Madison, Stony Brook, Towson, Delaware, and Elon. It marked the first time in FCS history that any conference qualified six teams for the playoffs. [1]
In the first round of the playoffs, James Madison defeated conference mate Delaware, while Stony Brook, Towson, and Elon lost their matchups. In the second round, James Madison fell to Colgate while 7-seed Maine, which had received a first-round bye, defeated Jacksonville State. Maine defeated 2-seed Weber State in the quarterfinals before falling to Eastern Washington in the semifinals.

The 2019 Colonial Athletic Association football season was the thirteenth season of football for the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) and part of the 2019 NCAA Division I FCS football season.
Despite being picked eighth in the preseason poll, Maine won the CAA championship outright with a conference record of 7–1. They were joined in the FCS playoffs by James Madison, Stony Brook, Towson, Delaware, and Elon. It marked the first time in FCS history that any conference qualified six teams for the playoffs. [1]
In the first round of the playoffs, James Madison defeated conference mate Delaware, while Stony Brook, Towson, and Elon lost their matchups. In the second round, James Madison fell to Colgate while 7-seed Maine, which had received a first-round bye, defeated Jacksonville State. Maine defeated 2-seed Weber State in the quarterfinals before falling to Eastern Washington in the semifinals.
