Interesting scenario. If you're starting a College Football team and you can choose 1 QB, 2 RB's, and 3 WR's from the list of SEC players below, how do you start your team? I tried to primarily use players after the year 2000. I've also used at least one player from each school in the SEC.

QB:
1. Joe Burrow
2. Cam Newton
3. Tim Tebow
4. Johnny Manziel
5. Peyton Manning
6. Dak Prescott

RB:
1. Derrick Henry
2. Mark Ingram
3. Darren McFadden
4. Todd Gurley
5. Tre Mason
6. Leonard Fournette
7. Nick Chubb
8. Marcus Lattimore
9. Cadillac Williams

WR:
1. Julio Jones
2. Amari Cooper
3. AJ Green
4. Alshon Jeffrey
5. Percy Harvin
6. Mike Evans
7. AJ Brown
8. Randall Cobb
9. Ja'Marr Chase
10. Jordan Matthews
11. Josh Reed
12. Terrance Edwards
13. Jeremy Maclin

Mine would probably be the following:

QB: Joe Burrow
RB: Darren McFadden
RB: Todd Gurley
WR: Amari Cooper
WR: Alshon Jeffrey
WR: Percy Harvin

Fun idea, add dollar values to each player. Assign an amount of cash to build a team.

Only difference in our two teams is Fournette vs Chubb.

I was thinking of adding an extra receiving option for Burrow. Chubb is good, but Fournette had 76 receptions from the RB position last year. So kinda figured give him the extra catching option, with Henry the mow-them-down bruiser back to compliment the rest.

Yet I can count on 1 hand the number of times we threw to him at LSU. Criminal.

Makes sense, but I just prefer two bowling balls in the backfield. I like your thinking process though, I didn’t think about it strategically like that.

Do Bama fans in general consider Julio better than Cooper ?

Walker and Bo in a modern offense is down right unfair. Imagine them playing in the LSU offense sending 5 guys out that had to be covered. Those two rb's would have averaged close to 10 yards per carry.
