Hey are there any online leagues out there with like the top 25 college teams. Im not looking to join anything, but i think a kind of league like that would be fun to watch and see what happens.

That is Cobb Goes to College online league. It's a fun league. 80 teams are represented in the University and Mid-Major environments.

Yes, even if you want to just keep up with our league and standings, we've got satellite web sites with conference standings and weekly rankings which all of our owners are eligible to participate in.

I don't think it's a league like you describe, though. Our players are not college players, but actual major-leaguers playing in a college format.

Ty Cobb goes to Auburn; Christy Mathewson plays for Maine; Ed Reulbach is at the Naval Academy ... the players are recruiting to human-owned teams based on the team's prestige and the players' proximity to the schools. So Cobb, a Georgia boy, was heavily recruited by UGA, Florida and Auburn and chose Auburn. Mathewson, who is the most famous Bucknell athlete in that school's history, was picked up by Maine. If we had an owner for Bucknell, I'm sure he would have gone there.

With 44 teams open, we're willing to change school names and, just like real life, we're open to teams jumping from one league to another. Heck, Miami is already in our Atlantic Coast Conference. All I have to say is what took them so long?

So check us out ... We're having fun.
