Football is and always has been the key. I used to be of the opinion that it should just be excluded, and let Title IX work for everything but football. As I've thought about it more, though, 85 scholarships is simply not needed, especially when sports like hockey (18 scholarships) and baseball (12.5) can't even fill out a starting lineup (well, baseball that's true assuming you have at least a couple starters and relievers who see continuous use).
Cut the 85 scholarships to 70. You can still go 3 deep at every position with 4 kickers/punters (or 3 kickers and a 4th QB). 15 extra scholarships is a baseball team, most of a hockey team, or a wrestling team.
