It's just for fun.  A no-money fantasy league.  Who'd you pick?

What's the scoring system?

Points per reception?  6 or 4 pts for a passing TD?

idk, i haven't played FF in 20 years.  The default scoring is fine, right?

Sure.  It just makes your team look much different.

Ex. -- Everyone would assume I'd pick Peyton Manning, but in fantasy -- it's going to be Josh Dobbs, or Hendon Hooker.

RB receptions matter, so Alvin Kamara over Jamal Lewis/Dylan Sampson types.

I'll just pick the best players, and not necessarily for fantasy numbers.

Yeah that's what I was getting at, too.  But okay, I'll just pick my favorites.

Williams and Campbell would be scary.

Yeah that's who's in my backfield for sure, although Cedric Benson scored quite a few more TDs than Earl.  But Earl was... Earl.

All of Texas' defenses in the late-70s to early 80s were SALTY.

It's crazy that both UT and OU had a great player named Roy Williams playing at the same time.

UF and UGA had something similar, both having a RB named Willie McClendon, but separated by 6-7 years.

Yeah, if only the offenses had been a little better... :03:

Last year's defense was pretty good too, statistically #3 in both scoring defense and total defense.  Obviously more ypg and ppg allowed in 2024 than back in the 70s but the game isn't the same.

Yeah we called their guy "Evil Roy Williams" and ours was "Good Roy Williams."  The Sooners reversed that of course.

Okay, I'll play, but know this is based on an archetype stuck in my head for whatever reason and not what would make for the best FF team and I have no idea about most of the stats compared to others I could pick.

QB - Jayden Daniels (yeah, I said it, come at me)
WR - Justin Jefferson, Josh Reed
RB - Kevin Faulk, Dalton Hilliard
TE - David LaFleur (don't really have "greats" there that I know of, but this is based on what could've been if the offense suited him)
Hybrid - I don't know of many standouts like that, but I'll say Joseph Addai
K - Cade York
DEF - 1958 (utterly different era, but damn)

Love that you have Josh Reed and one of the more recent famous WRs.  Respect.

The "FLEX" doesn't have to be a hybrid guy, it can be any RB, WR, or TE you want.  If your school is RB-rich, just pick the next-best RB.
