    I don't mind having teams spread out throughout conferences, but I do like the idea of being able to mostly play each other instead of the computer all the time.

    I'm thinking that separate conferences and setting a limit of overall team ratings -- say, nothing above an 80, or something like that -- might be the best way to go.

    80 rules out even decent teams like Illinois.

    90 might be better.

    I'm good either way. But if people are willing to commit to this, nothing would be more fun than setting the bar low, giving players scrub teams and that really brings the recruiting aspect to the forefront. Hell, I'd probably pick a down team anyway because I get into that stuff.

    If C-USA gets chosen, I pity anyone who ends up with SMU :D

    I built them up pretty good over 4 years. Lots of damn work!

    Maybe we make the cut 85? That way people can choose decent teams, or a team to build up, if that's what they want to do, without lagging so far behind at the beginning.

    85 sounds good to me. Let's get it going? I can set it up tonight and send invites if people send me their Live names.

    I deserve that. Haaa. Got really busy with my other job (which turned into my winter gig) setting up events, photo shoots, testing and etc. Great game tho.

    When you invite people, you have to invite them as the team they are going to play as.

    So we'd have to figure out exactly what we're going to do, IE: all one conference; no team over 85; etc, etc.

    Then we'd probably have to figure out the game parameters (All-American or Heisman), length of quarters and named rosters.
