Now, I agree that football disproportionately uses up slots and that needs to be accounted for. The first step is cutting from 85 down to a more reasonable number. 66 would be a good start. I know, 3 for every position on the field is extreme, but they MIGHT be able to pull it off.
Actually 56 would be a reasonable number. Because 56 is the travel roster limit for every single BCS conference, and most of the other conferences as well. Basically if you arent in the top 56 you arent on the team. Sort of like how you can only run 7 guys at Regionals and Nationals. You can only bring 56 football players with you. The fact that this means in all realities there are NINETEEN football players on the PRACTICE SQUAD with FULL RIDES is ridiculous.
