Which is the way it started (although without the long distance travel). 6-man football was going on between schools for many years before the major associations got into it. Like the way NCAA absorbed women's intercollegiate basketball that'd been AIAW's for years.
Actually come to think of it, that was the case with the other major sports we associate with the NCAA too. The NCAA was the establishment's response to football. Might've been interesting to see what would've happened if even a few of the prominent teams had told NCAA at the time to go suck an egg.
