I know in the past I've asked for your school's _____ team of all-time several different ways, but this time, we're using the random-ass 6-year old yahoo fantasy roster idea.
It's pretty limited, so let's set a cut-off year at 1970.

So you get the above, including 1 'flex' skill position player and a certain year's defense.

Florida:
QB - Tim Tebow
RB - Emmitt Smith & Fred Taylor
WR - Carlos Alvarez & Jabar Gaffney
TE - Kyle Pitts
FLEX - Percy Harvin
K - Eddy Pineiro
DEF - 1997 (allowed 70 yds rushing per game, and <50% comp vs the pass)
-
QB - Zac Taylor
RB - Mike Rozier, Ahman Green
WR - Trey Palmer, Stanley Morgan
TE - Johnny Mitchell
FLEX - Johnny (the Jet) Rodgers
K - Alex Henery (multiple NCAA records)
DEF - 1984 (allowed 203 yards total offense/game - 78 yards rushing/game - 9.5 points/game)

You tell us, you're the one who keeps all the teams' players' stats. :)
I could pick my favorites, but there are potentially some better "stat" players at certain positions, that I'd only recall if I looked them all up.

QB - Russell Wilson
RB - Melvin Gordon
RB - Jonathan Taylor
WR - Lee Evans
WR - Chris Chambers
TE - Lance Kendricks
FL - James White
K - Matt Davenport
D - 2017

This feels basically correct, though I might sub in Abbrederis for Chambers. It’s it’s about “fantasy,” I’d sub in Beckum for Kendricks, although the ladder was obviously much better actual tight end.

Good points. Let's make those changes.
-
QB - Connor Cook
RB - Lorenzo White
RB - Kenneth Walker III
WR - Charles Rogers
WR - Plexico Burress
TE - Chris Baker
FLEX - Javon Ringer
K - Paul Edinger
DEF - 2013

I don't know enough about how FF works to know who to pick. For example, Vince Young is an obvious choice as the best QB Texas has ever had, but Colt McCoy had better stats in several categories, so would he be the better pick for a fantasy team? I have no idea.

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

That's a really good team, maybe better than one would think.

Always the guy with more rushing yards and rushing TD's.

Montee Ball was a touchdown machine.

Fantasy cheat code lol

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.

Tennessee:
QB - Peyton Manning
RB - Jamal Lewis & Dylan Sampson
WR - Carl Pickens & Peerless Price
TE - Jason Witten
FLEX - Cordarelle Patterson
K - Jeff Hall
DEF - 1998 -- 10.7 pts per game (4th), 249.8 yds per game (2nd), 4 yds per play (2nd), 2.2 yds per rush (2nd)
-
QB - Vince Young
RB - Earl Campbell
RB - Ricky Williams
WR - Roy Williams
WR - Xavier Worthy
TE - David Thomas
FLEX - Cedric Benson
K - Justin Tucker
DEF - 1979 (allowed only 8.1 ppg)

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.
