Please help me pick my starter team for CFB25

[Lelo34]

I'm having a hell of a time figuring out who to start out with in dynasty.

I've decided to go with whoever wins this poll as they all seem intriguing to me. I'll just say that I'm going to be doing a career dynasty where I start as an offensive coordinator and work my way up.

So this starter team won't be my forever team unless I fall in love and get hired on as their HC.

So my final five candidates are:

Kenesaw State
Western Kentucky
Navy
Nevada
Temple

Please weigh in and help my indecisive butt pick a team

Of these, Navy for sure. Unless you are deadset on keeping the other four in the mix, I would point you in the direction of the MAC, and pick a team from there if you don't want Navy.

Kennesaw State

Pros:
-You get to recruit the state of Georgia. Which is obviously a plus, especially compared to the other teams listed.
-The novelty factor of it being their first year in FBS
-If you like to create your own story lines then you kind of take it as putting KSU, a team that has only been playing football for about 10 years, on the map.
-Pretty uniforms
-They went 3-6 in FCS play a year ago. This is a MAJOR rebuild if you like that kind of thing.


Cons:
-Fifth Third Stadium only holds about 10k people. Probably won't be making it into the toughest places to play
-They went 3-6 in FCS play a year ago. This is a MAJOR rebuild, if that kind of thing concerns

Nothing wrong with the other options you listed. I'm just biased.

For whatever reason, I never enjoyed playing with MAC teams. I just find that conference so mediocre it's not fun.

Honestly, Kenesaw was the team I was going to do it with. I was convinced of that for about a month. But yeah, the stadium being unimpressive has kind of eroded that.

That's the biggest reason Temple is on here. Big stadium could turn into an interesting home game if I can get them gud.

Fair enough. I'm starting off with Army as OC and I plan on taking the first MAC HC job I'm offered. Then I want to parlay that into the Syracuse job until I retire.

Syracuse triple option?

My dream school is Nebraska. I get offered the head job there, I'm there for the rest of my career.
