Can you complicate it more ????

There was a time when college football was pretty straight forward. D1A, D1AA, D2 and D3. While D2 and D3 have remained unchanged D1A and D1AA have gone by the wayside. Instead we now have the Football Bowl Subdivision and the Football Championship Subdivision. Is this some kind of new real estate deal that I have not heard about because it certainly sounds like it. To make it more confusing an FBS team can now count 1 FCS game every year towards Bowl eligibility. Whereas a D1A could only count a D1AA game once in five years, but only if they had not faced a D1AA in that time period.

How about 2 Divisions in all sports. Play by D1 rules or play by D3 rules. This will eliminate the "football only" schools that are allowed to exist under the D1AA/FCS standards and it will keep BCS caliber teams from giving people hand outs for what amounts to a scrimmage game.
