Here is my annual summary of the small college playoffs, a bit tardy. The NAIA, NCAA D3 and NCAA D2 playoffs began last week and there are already scores in for this week, which I will report in a post I will make next week.
The NAIA was originally the NAIB, “The National Association of Intercollegiate Basketball”, founded by Dr. James Naismith, no less in 1937, long before there was an NCAA playoff system and even before there was an NCAA basketball tournament as a showcase for smaller school’s basketball teams. They started a football tournament in 1956 and changed their title to the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. The NCAA started it’s playoffs in 1973. At that time there was just Division 1 for the “big time schools”, Division 2 for the mid-size schools and Division 3 for the small schools. Because man schools insisted on remaining in Division 1 despite the fact that they had no chance to win the national championship there, the NCAA in 1978 Created Division 1AA so these schools could claim to be Division 1 and yet have a championship to play for. In 2006, this Division was renamed the “Bowl Championship Subdivision” or FCS while the truly big-time school that looked to play in bowl games was renamed the “Football Bowl Subdivision” or FBS.
Over the years, NAIA schools have joined the NCAA to play in their playoffs but the NAIA, continues with 94 football playing schools with a 16 team playoff. The schools for which Division 1AA/FCS was intended refused to join it. Instead, that division is full of teams that migrated from Division II. The current Division II is full ex-NAIA teams and migrants from Division II while Division II includes the original members plus some former NAIA teams. FBS has 130 schools, 65 in ‘power’ conferences, counting Notre Dame) and 65 not. They run a 4 team playoff. FCS has 124 teams and has a 24 team playoff, (which includes a 5 loss team and thirteen other teams with 3-4 losses). Division 2 has 167 members and runs a 28 team tournament. Division 3 has 250 teams and runs a 32 team playoff, (which this year included a 5-5 team that lost 83-0.)
If I had a magic wand, I would take the NAIA, combine it with NCAA Divisions 2 &3 into a new Division 3, (which would then have 511 members), combine the FCS teams with the non-power conference FBS teams into a new Division 2 (189 members), and make the power conferences (plus Notre Dame) Division I, (65 members). I’d have an 8 team playoff in Division 1, a 16 team playoff in Division 2 and a 32 team playoff in Division 3. But nobody asked me to so have what we see below.
