No, it's definitely still just football. It just happens to be played with guys who aren't quite big enough or fast enough to play at a higher level. That's really the only difference. I work in D3, and the football players at my school come from a lot of the same big time programs from around Dallas that produces guys who go to Texas and Oklahoma and TCU and on and on and on. The guys who play D3 are just guys who aren't big enough or athletic enough. Hell, last year I know there was a starting safety for St. Thomas Aquinas who wound up going the D3 route while everyone else on that team was either D1 or borderline D1.

D3 football is still football, just played by slower and smaller guys. We've had kids at my school who were transfers (and had scholarships) to places like Air Force and Navy, and they weren't leaps and bounds better, for instance. Okay, the kid from Navy was. But he was also 6-4, 220 and ran a 4.6 playing tight end.
