If we took BC would we be able to put Matty Ice at QB and Flutie at kicker? lol

I don't think Flutie is listed as a kicker in the search engine. I do remember him kicking a few for the Pats!

Having 3 QBs to choose from with BC is a very nice thing to have wrt meeting the salary cap. Matt Ryan is definitely the prize of the group. Many other great choices on the list too. Hope you will join us. Lots of fun commentary in our forum in the Sim Football Theme League classifieds.

6 spots left. Purdue was taken. Divisions have also been posted in our Sim Football Theme League classifieds forum.

We try to keep the geo-fit with the divisions, so with the selection of your school, you could have an idea (probability) of what conference and division you would fall into as well.

I was 99.9% joking, it would be a serious loophole if that were possible. How much of a time commitment would this be?

1 game per day. 4 preseason/16 regular, then postseason with 6 teams in each conference

initial settings take 30 minutes or so. Depth chart, down and distance play calling. Kick/punting settings. And defensive settings.

then you can adjust settings before each game and at halftime.. the halftime score appears at 210am ET. Make those adjustments before 12pm ET, 11amCT or 9amPT, and the final score updates at 210pm ET

Daily maintenance could be 10 mins or an hour. There are nice stats to review and each games play-by-play. So you can spend a lot of time analyzing and reviewing that too. Team and individual stats update with each game.

***All schools listed here have a respectable QB (the common thread of this list) and enough offensive firepower to be competitive. And plenty of cap room to get a good or great Defense****

I’m definitely tempted, just not sure if I have the time right now or not

4 spots left. I think you would enjoy it. You'll spend a little time building the team, but not a big daily investment wrt game adjustments. Worth a shot for 9 bucks and a months-worth of daily entertainment. We've had recurring leagues when there is enough interest. So you get to try different teams and play some of the same owners again.

Is there a way to sort by college on WIS or do you need to know who you’re looking for?

Click on one of the schools above in my Sept 11th post. Any of the blue hyperlinks should take you to the official source (pro football reference) in finding the school and players. Then you plug them into the WIS draft center to build the roster and meet the salary cap.

Only Pittsburgh and Washington have been selected from the latest list above. Everything else is available.

Has Boston College been taken?

BC is available. Anyone that is serious and wants to claim a school, please find us in the Sim football theme league classifieds. You can make your post there to join the group.
