yeah that would be sweet. It should probably be 24 teams, 11 games in each league. Winners of each league play for the title. Bottom two drop. Would be insanely sick. I don't think most US sports fans realize how awesome this would be. Even better than the NFL IMO.

I was actually thinking of having the bottom half (or more) drop. I think you would need to keep chaning it up to ensure that Freshmen from all 117 schools have a slightly better than mathematical possibility of making it to the top before they graduate.
Any promotion system would be awsome though.

My idea has always been to take the 119 FBS teams, add one to make it an even 120 (App st. perhaps) then divide them into 4 40 team subdivisions. Teams have to schedule teams from there subdivision in their schedule each year with one "out of division" game allowed.
Each year, drop the bottom 5 and raise the top 5. This allows plenty of movement year-to-year and also means that the schedules from each division will be largely comparable.
