Study Examines Structural Inequality in FBS College Football

Original: Structural Competitive Inequality in FBS Football: Governance, Finance, and Market Forces

A new analysis in The Sport Journal examines why competitive imbalance persists across top-tier Division I college football. The piece argues that governance structures, unequal revenue flows, and market forces combine to entrench advantages for wealthy programs, leaving smaller schools unable to close the gap. It adds to ongoing debate over whether the NCAA and conferences should reform finance rules to preserve competitive balance.

Why now: Debate over conference realignment, NIL money, and revenue disparities has put competitive inequality in college football under fresh scrutiny.
