Anger-clicking random things I don't ordinarily click yielded some results.

Until I laid all these QB cards out, I hadn't thought about creating seasons past and playing them out, including how defunct conferences.  Or even an all-star conference schedule and see how your team does would be cool.  

I made 2001 Maryland's QB card and one for Temple ('79) to complete the Big East fantasy conference.  The QB cards are the easy part, making 40 offense cards is the toughie.  The defense and special teams cards are easy, though.

I'm going to selfishly make the '08 Gators and then instead of making another Nebraska or another Alabama, I'll go with these diverse non-champs, all the while tweaking the defense and testing it out.

could be fun to do an all time sec vs an all time b1g game. or whenever you get enough card sets for each team, do an all time bama vs all time gators, etc.
cards looks good, btw. clean and efficient looking.

Thanks.
I'm just ho-hum making them on excel for now.  If the game ever came to fruition and was purchased or distributed by a big-boy company, the cards would look snazzier.  

You could make an all-star team if you wanted.  Get a QB with high completion % and low INT %, then get the very longest play cards you could get for all 4 play types.  The interesting part would be to find the guys with only 1-2 cards who had big averages (only 5-10% of his team's carries/receptions).

All-Time, school-specific teams would be a blast, but every game would be a shootout.  Plus I'd have to re-configure the % of carries/receptions each player has in comparison to his new teammates, so to speak, but it could be done.  

ELA might have experience with this - creating all-time teams on a video game, and only being allowed one #1 jersey or one #12.  So you have to decide is this QB the best to wear this jersey number, or would that safety from 10 years ago be more valuable as #12, because my school has depth at QB historically.  

Fun stuff.

That could be another fun off-season thread - list your school's all-time team, but in the parameters of my game:  
1 QB
4 RB
6 WR/TE
1 K, P, KR, PR
Duplicate jersey numbers would be allowed:)

We did All-Decade teams for each Big Ten on here back in like 2010.  Then I pulled out all of my old NCAA video games, with the rosters I modified as I simmed through the seasons, to pull the ratings of the players we selected to assemble those all time teams.  The ultimate plan was to have them complete a full round robin against each other, but the project wound up being too large.  But it did happen there.  SOmetimes it was fun.  Sometimes it was like, oh Illinois had a couple guys make the team as depth OL who both wore #67, I'll give one #66, and then finding out that the guy we voted as a starting OT on the team also wore #66, so then I'd go back and change the other.  So it wound up becoming more frustrating than anything.
