Which team should I pick for 08?

Sometimes minor conference schools are fun, too. In NCAA 03, I was looking for a weaker team and chose UTEP. I led them to national glory and every since then, I will do at least one season at UTEP for old times sake.

Except now, they're too good for the style I like to do.

It's interesting to hear which criteria folks use to pick their dynasty schools. Good topic.

I also like to select a power conference school that has struggled for many years. This year, my front runner is Vanderbilt. Vandy looks like a fun dynasty for several reasons.

First, of course being in the SEC, there will no shortage of challenging games.

Second, Tennessee is not a particularly lush recruiting state (at least in the NCAA video game series), and as a result provides a good recruiting challenge.

Third, I really like Vandy's uniforms--something that becomes very important to me after playing numerous seasons with a school.

Finally, I really enjoy the fact that Vandy is primarily known for its academics rather than its sports programs. Taking a school with a great academic tradition and boosting it into the upper echelons of the athletic landscape really adds to the notion of creating a true collegiate "dynasty".

Just my $0.02...

I agree with all of your above and it's also why I always pick Vandy after I do OSU and Hawai'i.

Im picking UK of course. i love the challenge of turning UK into a formidable foe in the SEC. Either way I will have fun playing with Andre Woodson.

You need that one fat QB back for this year. I would love to see him in next-gen glory with the new and improved body models. Is he in the NFL, if so what team? I'd like to check him out. Was it Jared Lorenzen??

Jared Lorenzen plays for the New York Football Giants. We use him occasionally to QB sneak on 3rd and short situations lol.
