I second that FIRST at a college level would be amazing...
There are many robotics competitions, most of them are very regional because of the busy lives us college kids live. A new one that my school is participating in is the University Rover Challenge: http://www.universityroverchallenge.org/portal/c/urc

Others that former FIRST students have enjoyed are of course the DARPA challenge, individual competitions like robogames (robot Olympics) and mini BAJA . I know there are a lot more and there are some university teams competing in team 842's NURC.
