Yeah, two good players at the turn almost always outscores a top player and an OK player way back at the end of the 2nd. Past that it's mostly all speculation anyway.

But I did want to go homer this year with Mahomes :(

Going to give the schedule one more stab tonight. If it doesn't work out, we'll just go with auto-schedule.

I'm giving it a shot too just for fun. It doesn't look like there's really a way to schedule everyone to play every team in their conference twice. Everyone would have to have one team they play once.

Its probably for the best anyways, otherwise I would just draft as many OU players as possible and there's no way that ends well for me.

I think it'd be permissible to have each team play someone in their division once, then keep the remaining six weeks as 'away' games.

The whole '5 person divisions' means that you have to split who gets to play inter-team per week and keep an odd man out every week. UGH MY BRAIN

I always do this with Tennessee players and it's going to suck when we get good and other people try to take my guys.

I came up with a schedule where everyone plays everyone else in their division and 2 people from every other division. I would suggest moving the weeks around so that all the divisional play isn't in the first 4 weeks though. Edit: modified the weeks so that divisional games are more spread out.

I know I'm gonna homer pick some ASU people. Probably not a wise decision this year :smith:

You should do that. And then trade him to me after the 1st week for my awesome RB and surprise QB combo.

I can't wait to draft a QB in the 4th, then end up starting the guy I drafted in the 10th for most of the season, then pick up a FA who outscores both of them because college fantasy football is random nonsense.

It was fun to be on the right side of it. Going from Kelly to Baker Mayfield (who I was savaged in the chat for picking) and then signing Paxton Lynch like 7 games in was pretty magical.
