Yahoo Sports has rolled out a brand‑new season‑long college fantasy football experience that flips the traditional format on its head, bringing together the nation’s top programs in a single, immersive competition.
At the heart of the revamped game is an innovative 'Offense' roster slot, where participants draft an entire offensive unit and earn points based on that unit’s collective performance each week.
The 'Offense' Slot in Detail
When a user locks in an offense, the system tallies the group's statistics for the week and translates them into fantasy points, creating a direct link between a team's real‑world output and a fantasy scoreboard.
Rosters have been expanded to 18 players, giving fans more flexibility and depth compared to the standard 15‑player lineups of traditional fantasy football.
Scoring and Incentives
Participants can accrue points for touchdowns, total yards, field goals made, and wins, while deductions apply for turnovers and losses, ensuring that both big plays and consistency matter.
The scoring model also rewards high‑scoring offenses, reflecting the modern college game's emphasis on explosive attacks.
Who Can Play?
Fans can draft athletes from the Power 4 conferences — Big Ten, SEC, Big 12, ACC — and Notre Dame, guaranteeing a blend of marquee teams and star talent.
By mirroring the excitement of today’s college football landscape, the league aims to keep participants engaged from the opening kickoff through the final bowl games.
