We started this last year. It's a modified version of Fantasy Football. There's apparently a lot of very complicated rules in the various Fantasy Football Leagues. You pick x number of players from x number of positions and keep track of yards gained, yards given up, sacks, 1st downs, etc..
This is actually a lot simpler. The only thing that really matters is the score.
And since this is College Alumni style, whenever a player scores, those points go to the school he used to play for. It's even easy to keep track of. All you need to do is go to www.nfl.com and look at the boxscores. Click on the player's name and it will show the college he went to.
I don't have the time to keep track of all the schools, so if anyone else wants to get in on this, they'll have to keep track of their own school's points. Since I'm a Wolverine, I'm obviously keeping track of all my fellow Michigan Alumni.
