They should do what euro soccer does. They have relegation..you are at the top you then move to the next division and have to perform. If you dont the next year you could be dropped back down. Makes a team have to fight and perform to move up or get axed to the lower division.
That would be fun but it'll never happen. In order to move to FBS you have to get invited by a current FBS conference. None of the northern FCS schools like the Dakota's or Montana's bring enough viewership numbers to entice an invite at the moment. Is what it is and why we are stuck at the FCS level.

Average attendance for all big 10 teams is 65,000 and thats counting the bad teams like northwestern and rutgers.

Then go to the sec average attendance is 78,000.

The mvc average is 10000 with sdsu and ndsu both being on the high end 16000 and 18000.

Just from a financial stand point there is no way to compete at the top level with nil structured the way it is now
