The Gulf Coast Conference (Fictional)

Gulf Coast Conference v2.04
To download these on XBox360, search gamertag: Pogo Pogo Pogo


Welcome to the Gulf Coast Conference (GCC)! I've created 12 teambuilder teams along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico to have fun playing in a custom, fictional conference. Some of the schools are completely fictional, some of the schools are real schools without football teams, and some of the schools have football teams, they simply are not D1. Feel free to download all, none, or some of the teams. However, the idea is to download all teams, substitute them in, and then put them all into Conference USA to play a fun dynasty as the Gulf Coast Conference.

Below is a list of the teams along with the link to their teambuilder page as well as some of the basic information about the school to save you some of the time of clicking the link. Also, I've listed the team I suggest swapping the teambuilder team for. If you follow my suggestions for all 12 schools, then the rivals I list for each school should match up.

If you view a school, please rate it. Thanks!

2. Swap Mid Tenn State from Sun Belt to C-USA West for SMU.
3. Swap UL Lafeyette from Sun Belt to C-USA West for Tulsa.
4. Swap UL Monroe from Sun Belt to C-USA West for UTEP.
5. Swap Arkansas State from Sun Belt to C-USA East for Marshall.
6. Swap FIU from Sun Belt to C-USA East for Memphis.
7. Swap Florida Atlanta from Sun Belt to C-USA East for Tulane.
8. Swap Troy from Sun Belt to C-USA East for UCF.

9. Import Alabama GCU to C-USA East for Troy.
10. Import Biloxi to C-USA East for Southern Miss.
11. Import East Texas to C-USA West for Houston.
12. Import Florida GCU to C-USA East for Arkansas State.
13. Import Galveston to C-USA West for Rice.
14. Import Louisiana GCU to C-USA West for UL Lafeyette.
15. Import Mississippi GCU to C-USA West for ECU.
16. Import Mobile to C-USA East for UAB.

18. Import Tampa to C-USA East for FIU.

East Texas
Galveston
Louisiana GCU
Mississippi GCU
New Orleans
Texas Gulf Coast


C-USA East (Gulf Coast Conference East):

Tulsa
UCF
UTEP
Western Kentucky

[Turns out, rivalries don't work as nice as they should and changing conferences changes rivals for TB teams. You can still follow these steps to get conference set up nice, but rivals won't work right. Guess it's okay though, because the game doesn't seem to keep track of rivalry records for TB teams.]

Suggestions, comments, constructive criticism, and complements are all welcome.
