Any I-AA fans on the board? If so, what's your team?
I don't have a favorite although in this area it's difficult to ignore Appalachian State. I like the 1-AA playoff system and wish the 1-A would follow suit.
Sometimes I check in on I-AA...
I usually at least watch their Football Championship game.
Before I transferred to Texas I was at UTSA which is 1-AA in the Southland Conferenance-- but they only have a basketball team and no football team. Although, I hear they will be getting a football team in 2011.
My alma mater, the University of Dayton Flyers. They're in the Pioneer League, a league that originally started when a bunch of schools playing Division I basketball and Division III football were told in the early 90s to knock it off, so the schools formed their own Division I non-scholarship league.
Usually a pretty solid team -- 8-1 this year with one game left -- even though football is an afterthought at UD: just an excuse to tailgate in the afternoons before the Saturday night parties.
Definitely more I-AA fans than I was expecting. I'm a Montana fan but it's been a tough year.
Didn't Montana graduate a bunch of people last year?
I love watching games on tv there. Nice setting. Hope to get there sometime.
Here's a link to a message board. Scroll down a bit and there is an email written by the Montana AD. It is in reference to Montana moving to the WAC. Interesting stuff. Inside look at how college athletics work.

I am from Fairborn, and spent many a night in the early 90's at UD partying with friends prior to a UD game. I went to the Stag Bowl in 1990 and watched some friends play, and love the small school atmoshpere.
I played collegiate football at Carson-Newman from 91-93. Back then it was Div I NAIA, but it has since dropped to Div II NCAA. They got killed this past week by Lenoir Rhyne College Back in the day, that was our patsy game.
