The salary cap is part of the league by-laws and CBA. The nfl is a private entity, made up of privately held teams, they can revoke membership if you don’t play by their rules.

This is what makes imposing these types of rules in College Football so much more challenging. You have a lot of public universities and potentially public funds involved combined with a big mess of regulatory bodies ( NCAA, Different Conferences, CFP Committees, Individual School ADs) it’s a lot harder to regulate !

Yep. The powers at be that have fought unions and associations by the players

have strung it out about as long we they could, now the last ditch effort on keeping their consolidated power is by lobbying congress to enact laws for collegiate sports. I just don't set it happening, when it doesn't it'll quickly fall into a negotiated structure between the players and schools.
