They ended the 2010 season with a 6-5, 5-1 record. In 2011 the Seawolves claimed their first outright Big South Championship with a 41-31 victory over #16 Liberty in the de facto Big South Championship Game. This is their third consecutive Big South Championship, this time advancing for the firs time to the 2011 NCAA Division I Football Championship as an automatic qualifier. In 2012, the Seawolves returned to the playoffs as Co-Champions of the Big South and advanced for the second straight year to the second round.
