Fantasy sports leagues are a multi-million dollar business and a good way to participate in your favorite sport and feel like you're part of the action. But it's just not for pros anymore. College fantasy leagues are just as popular. If you've looked and can't find a college football fantasy league that fits your needs, just start your own. Here's how.

From Quick Guide: Fantasy Leagues
Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Find ten to twelve people who will make up the teams for your league. While you can have more or less teams for your league, ten teams is optimal.

  2. Step 2

    Choose what conferences your league is going to be based on. There are many options, but if you want to make your life simple, then sticking with BCS leagues is your best choice.

  3. Step 3

    Locate a website that will host your league. The two top choices for college football fantasy leagues are U-Sports.com and Pre-ProSports.com.

  4. Step 4

    Pick a commissioner. Make this decision carefully. Leagues can be made or broken because of the choice of commissioner.

  5. Step 5

    Use 15 players on your roster. You can use more or less, but once again 15 is optimal.

  6. Step 6

    Set up your starting lineup. This can be tricky, but it doesn't have to be. Collegefantasybowl.com has a good example of a sample starting line-up that works for beginning leagues.

  7. Step 7

    Determine how you're going to handle scoring. You have the options of doing it manually or you can have your website handle it. Collegefantasybowl.com offers an easy-to-follow guide for scoring your league.

  8. Step 8

    Decide how to go about choosing a champion. Perhaps you're going to follow the BCS method or maybe you're going to have a playoff. The beauty of starting your own college football fantasy league is that you can do whatever works best for you and the owners.
