I think it would be great to have college football (and other sports too, I suppose) set up in tiers, which teams can move in and out of, much like English (and other leagues) soccer. You have your top-flight tier, which play each other for the top-flight title. 2nd tier goes for 2nd tier title, and so on. Each tier has 20-30 teams, or whatever. Maybe we have regional leagues to make up for the many schools. Bottom 2 teams in each tier get sent down to the next tier; top 2 teams get bumped up to the next tier. This all but assures that teams similar abilities will play each other, and there won't be any gimmes. Makes things interesting with relegation and promotion too. Let's get the ball rolling on this one!
