FOFC Alma Mater Fantasy Football (now claiming 2008 teams)

[QuikSand]

We've done this for a couple of years... why not keep it going?

Short version -- you get a team, consisting of only players from one college.

Fairy standard league setup, head to head weekly matchups, but no playoffs.

If you had a team last year and want it back, claim it here. If you want to stake your claim to a new school, post that here as well -- I think the league will hold either 16 or 20 teams.

I'll post roster details, etc once I have the league set up. I plan to make them the same as last year... here's the link to last year's league thread:

2006 FOFC Alma Mater Fantasy Football (Time to set lineups!) - Front Office Football Central (http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/showthread.php?t=50956&highlight=mater)



Oh, please don't sign up unless you're at least willing to put in the absolutely trivial amount of work necessary to manage your team. It sucks having to ride herd on people who though this was a great idea, claimed a team, and then refused to spend even two minutes to get things together.

[QuikSand]

I'll claim Syracuse.

[rkmsuf]

I'm retiring from VA Tech to play fantasy dogfighting.

[sooner333]

Dang, I wish Oklahoma had a QB in the NFL right now. And more than one running back. This would be pretty fun.

[cartman]

If Huckleberry doesn't return, I'll take over at Texas.

[Huckleberry]

I'm back with Texas. Sorry, cartman. If you give up Texas in BBCF I might reconsider. ;)

[Coffee Warlord]

If there's room for a new player, I'll take my QB-less Colorado Buffaloes.

[sooner333]

If CW isn't going to have a QB, I might try my luck with Oklahoma. Maybe Paul Thompson will make the Packers and play a "Slash" type role or something. Plus, I have good receivers and a few good defensive players to take. Although, lack of kicker will kill me too. I'll take Oklahoma for now, I guess.

[digamma]

I'm back with Tennessee.


I posed this last year, but would anyone be interested in setting up a bowl system for the league for the last week of the season. We'd have to "hand" score, in the sense that we'd compare scores of teams in the relevant match-ups. Just a thought--keeping with the college theme.

CU really doesn't have much in the way of quality talent in the league right now. I think it'd be fun to upset one of the big boys in this, though.

[kurtism]

I could do this, but would prefer to skip the insta-last-place finish of choosing my alma mater (good old IU). If another team is needed, I'll throw in my name and pick a different Big Ten school... looks like TheOSU went unclaimed last season, is it still available?

If not, I'd be happy with Wisconsin.

[Lathum]

Back as Michagin

[sooner333]

btw, can we sign up in yahoo yet? or do we need a password?

[Lathum]

I thied thr link to last years and couldn't get into it.

[JeeberD]

I'll return as Penn State...

[Bearcat729]

I will return with Auburn

[sterlingice]

I'll be back as Notre Dame. Maybe this year I'll have a QB (once the holdout ends)

SI

[QuikSand]

Back as Michagin

While I personally have no love lost for the school up north, I'm really going to have to insist that you work on your spelling.

Ok, I've joined up. Looks like 6 so far.

SI

[Swaggs]

I'll take WVU and their 0 NFL RBs again.

Next year, I will have Slaton, so beware. :)

[kurtism]

Any idea yet if there will be any spots for teh n00bs?

[Butter]

I'll abandon Virginia and take Ohio State if Butter_of_69 doesn't return.

I did not play last year, so I don't even know if anyone took tOSU. But you might have to fight it out with kurtism from above.

[QuikSand]

Okay gang... anyone who wants to play, claim your team here and sign up with an obvious team name. Please don't take a school that someone has already staked out. And please spell "Michigan" correctly if you insist on using that school.

bah!

[Tigercat]

I took LSU and registered as such. Jamarcus needs to hurry up and sign and take training camp by storm!

[Huckleberry]

And please set your draft lists.

I'm just sayin'.

[Toddzilla]

I'll take the U of Miami - since VPI is sans QB

[Toddzilla]

Dola - is there a good site that shows NFL alma maters?

[Huckleberry]

http://www.sportsline.com/collegefootball/alumni-tracker

[Toddzilla]

Also - what is the rule for positions that cannot be filled, i.e. a Va Tech QB?

Defense?

[kurtism]

With tOSU taken, I'll grab USC.

[kurtism]

Dola. That's Southern Cal, not the Gamecocks.

[QuikSand]

Defense?

1. You do without.

2. League uses individual defensive players, as detailed above. You get guys from your college.

[Neuqua]

Going to go ahead and play with my running backs from NIU...

[SnDvls]

I'd love to join as Arizona St

[Toddzilla]

FYI...

This league will NOT draft so long as there is an odd number of teams, and we currently have 11.

[Tigercat]

FYI...

By 11 you mean 15? ;)

[Toddzilla]

oh, yeah...odd, still.

[cthomer5000]

Ill take Rutgers to even it up if you guys need it... there are a couple guys... probably not enough to actually compete but if you need someone to make up the numbers, im here.

[cthomer5000]

dola. i went ahead and registered. if you get two additional teams that will be more competitive, feel free to boot me. I wont be offended.

Rutgers NFL players available in yahoo:
FB - 1
TE - 2
Defense - 5

looks like a championship to me....

[hahnkim]

back as UCLA. hope we don't finish last again.

[sterlingice]

I'm just happy to have a QB for Notre Dame this season

SI

[Toddzilla]

BUMP for we still have an odd number of teams...

Quik - when is the draft scheduled?

I'll bow out to make the league even if we're still odd the day of the draft.

[Ajaxab]

If you need one more, I could pick up Iowa. Quik, lemme know and I'll register.

[SnDvls]

yes we are still @ 17

[QuikSand]

Still looking to fill up... here's a link to go look up your players (and put them at the top of your draft tool):

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players

[sterlingice]

Man, I lost my biggest weapon with John Carney retiring :(

SI

[Toddzilla]

If you need one more, I could pick up Iowa. Quik, lemme know and I'll register.Join UP! We still only have 17.

[JeeberD]

Bump

ONE MORE TEAM, PLEASE!

[cthomer5000]

If needed, drop me (Rutgers). I was the last guy out to even up the league last year, and it wont offend me if that's needed again.

[Toddzilla]

If needed, drop me (Rutgers). I was the last guy out to even up the league last year, and it wont offend me if that's needed again.You'll have to delete your own team I believe. Wait until tomorrow before you do that - we still may get magical team #18 before then.

[QuikSand]

I'm pitching this league to a buddy who went to UVa, so we might have an 18th team shortly, I hope.

[Toddzilla]

No takers, so The U of Miami is out. Have fun, guys...

[cthomer5000]

So did you just drop out? Im good to stay in or what?

[hahnkim]

nobody drop out, i found an 18th for us.

[Ajaxab]

Just got back from a long weekend and signed up as Iowa.

[SnDvls]

we're still @ 17

[Toddzilla]

I dropped out - if we're at 17 now, I'll add my team back

[hahnkim]

I dropped out - if we're at 17 now, I'll add my team back

at 18 now.

[SnDvls]

actually we're at 19 now

[cthomer5000]

jeez guys, lets figure this out already

[Toddzilla]

Yep - 19 teams as of this post. So the guy who took Rutgers and expects to field a team of 3 players (4?) should probably delete the team and then Quik needs to cap the league size at 18 to ensure the draft goes off before gametime tomorrow night.

[cthomer5000]

rutgers = beleted

cap it and roll, boyz.

2nd year in a row i have to jump ship to keep from holding things up.

Next year ill REALLY be in with both Brian Leonard and presumably Ray Rice tearing up the league.

[k0ruptr]

yea i want in next year as Hawaii for fun.

[QuikSand]

I have supposedly triggered the auto-draft, and the site now includes the message:

"Your auto draft will be completed between now and 11:59 PM PT on Monday, Sep 10."


Sorry to have dragged this on longer than was reasonable, guys... the odd number of teams (but then we got pelted with two late joiners after cthgomer drpped out... WTF?) didn't help thing, but I shoudl have just drawn the line a week or so ago.


I will do my best to get this sorted out, thought we may need to start with Week 2 NFL games, I'm guessing.

[QuikSand]

We'll start with week two. Once the auto-draft runs, I will go and manually void all the (many, I'm sure) illegal rosters, to at least help out the teams who are trying to pay attention. Thanks in advance for those who actually set their draft lists to select your proper players.

[Toddzilla]

The draft ran - rosters are full...

[QuikSand]

I went in an pruned most of the rosters... possibly an imperfect job, but nearly every name player that isn't on your roster yet ought to be sitting there available as a free agent, for you to get your own roster in shape for next week's games. Thanks - it looks like the majority of the league at least put *some* guys into their draft tool, making my job a good deal easier.

[SnDvls]

not that it really matters, but Iowa needs to drop Jake Plummer

[sterlingice]

Notre Dame is filled up and ready to go :)

SI

[Toddzilla]

When I saw the draft completed, I filled up a little, too :)

[JeeberD]

Got my guys. Go LJ, Gould, and Co!

[sooner333]

I have a lot of defensive guys

[sterlingice]

In what will most likely be our most dramatic moment of the season, Notre Dame pulls out a stunning 19.5-18.5 victory when Arnaz Battle scores with under a minute to go in the 49ers-Cards game, the last one of the week :)

Oregeon State is gonna be tough if Anderson is half as good as he was Sunday

Thank goodness McNabb was a bust yesterday...

[Swaggs]

Thank goodness I have Pacman Jones, Chris Henry, and Mike Vanderjagt.

[Huckleberry]

Down by half a point going into tonight's game. I've got David Thomas at TE.

One measly point. I've got a maybe a 30% chance of getting it.

[Toddzilla]

The U just got a quarterback, baby!

It's Vinnie Time!

[Swaggs]

Thank goodness I have Pacman Jones, Chris Henry, and Mike Vanderjagt.

SI

[QuikSand]

Wow, Syracuse has quickly fallen from league power to complete also-ran. We got unlucky with a couple of matchups, and Marvin Harrison's injury has pushed us down into the lower tier. Ugh.

I'll claim Syracuse.

again.

I call Michigan again

[QuikSand]

I renewed last year's league setup, and it looks like all last year's owners shoudl get an email invitation. We'll fill in as need be.

[JeeberD]

In (as always) as Penn State. Thanks for setting this up again, Quik...

[Izulde]

If a spot opens up, I'll grab Arkansas :)

[Lathum]

Joined.

If I could discover a RB I would be unstoppable!!

[digamma]

I'm in. I'm going to change things up and dump Tennessee to go with my likely hapless Yellow Jackets. No QB, but should be able to score some points at WR and on defense, and perhaps a garbage TD every now and then at RB.

[Toddzilla]

Hokie Hokie Hokie Hi!

[Bisbo]

Definitely in if there's room for me and my Boston College Eagles.

[kurtism]

Back with USC.

[SnDvls]

I'd like to be back as ASU....my old e-mail that was with the prior league is no good can someone shoot me a PM with the info.

Thanks

[cthomer5000]

Can I finally get Rutgers into this thing? I think i've been dropped 2 years running at the last second to make sure it was even # of teams.

I didn't post in the thread, but I rejoined the league as Notre Dame. Maybe I'll get a QB by the second half of the season. It would be a first for me :D

West Virginia is in and gives us an even 12 teams. With Steve Slaton and Owen Schmitt in the NFL, I now have ball (or water cooler) carriers, so beware! :)

Are we hoping to add a few more teams still (I know I don't see Rutgers on there yet).

[sterlingice]

Bump...

SI

[QuikSand]

Last year we had maybe 14 or 16 teams, I think. Any more takers?

(thanks for the bump, SI)

[Huckleberry]

I'm signing up with Texas again.

[sterlingice]

I think we're running up against the deadline:

"Leagues that complete drafts (live, auto, offline) after 11:59pm PT on Monday, September 1 will start scoring in week 2. However, the commissioner can adjust the league setting "Start League scoring in" to Week 1."

So we might need to get on this tomorrow.

SI

[QuikSand]

We're sitting on 13 teams... honestly, nobody out there wants (frex) Ohio State? I don't mind making the manual settings, but I'm not exactly interested in going team by team and manually setting up each person's roster. My suspicion is if we get to an even number and run the draft even tomorrow, there's still going to be a lot of work for someone to do.

It's looking like this might die on the vine this year. For that I apologize... just haven't been really motivated to spend a lot of time here recently (gee) and I kept forgetting about this entirely.

[Tigercat]

How many teams do we need to get started? I just resigned up as LSU to put us at 14. (Hopefully Russell playing QB full time this year gets us competitive if this goes forward.)

Edit: but yea, there probably will be a lot of teams with autodrafts not properly set up, there was a good bit of that last year wasn't there?

[QuikSand]

Your auto draft will be completed between now and 11:59 PM PT on Friday, Sep 5.

*sigh*

[Tigercat]

Sounds like a cable man visit timetable.

[sooner333]

*sigh*

Could you just do a commissioner draft and have everyone pick nobody and start the league with free agent pool?

[JeeberD]

*sigh*

Crap. I slacked on getting my list done, and now it looks like I can't do it. And I'm leaving for El Paso on Friday morning, so if the draft is on Friday I'm screwed...

Tried, but it won't let me finalize a draft until all the slots have been filled.

oops.. shit it looks like im team 15 now... should i delete out?

I take the blame for not getting this together this year. A combination of me not having the perseverance to do enough thread-bumping to get people to sign up, and the bad luck of us having an odd number of teams every single time I checked in. I actually checked the setting to run the draft some time last week, but it looks like it never did. If we had a week to spare, we'd have been able to overcome these delays, but as it stands, I'm declaring this year a miss.

Sorry, all.

I know at one point we were at 14 teams after ct deleted his team, but then it appears someone else deleted their team, dropping us down to 13 and I guess stalling the draft...
