Div 1-AA Championship

Anyone watching this? It's a pretty good game. It's on ESPN2 if anyone is looking for some football tonight.

the announcer dudes were saying that it's not 1-AA anymore, it's strictly D-1. When did this happen and what do they call the old D-1?

I'm glad i'm not the only one that didn't get the memo...

I got the memo, but I can't figure out why they did it. Does calling them D-IAA hurt their wittle feelwings?

I just read this on USAToday.com before opening this thread:

Appalachian State is the first team to take home the newly named NCAA Division I Football Championship. The NCAA is phasing out the terms Divisions I-A and I-AA that applied to football. I-A is now the Football Bowl Subdivision, while I-AA is the Football Championship Subdivision.

Do you think the name for the 1-A Championship, The Football Bowl Champion, is yet another hint that a Playoff is now in the works?

Was the stigma 1-AA dropped so the Big East now can play Howard University and claim they played a Div 1 team while ND has a soft schedule because they played a service academy?

Damn, Amato got fired and he was the only coach that beat THE Division I Football Champions in 2006!
