Which Teams Have You Played Dynasty With?

[The Red Scourge]

I’m curious what teams y’all have used in dynasty before. Here are the parameters:
-Must have spent at least a year at the school (could be HC, OC, or DC)
-No Road To Glory or 2013 season teams
-List FBS, FCS, DII/DIII, and fictional teams separately (I listed mine per current delineations).
-Mark any current dynasties you have going. Current dynasties can be less than a season old.

Also, what teams will you never play with and why? As well as, are there any trends or things you noticed about the teams you play with?


FBS (Division 1a):
Appalachian State (current, OD)
Army
BYU
California
Coastal Carolina
Colorado
Florida Atlantic
Hawai’i
Kent State
Louisiana Monroe
Louisiana Tech
Maryland
Miami (FL) (current *insert shameless plug for my Miami Death Penalty Dynasty here*)
Middle Tennessee State
New Mexico
Ohio
Oklahoma
Old Dominion
Rice
South Alabama
Tennessee
Tulane
UMass
UNLV (current, OD)
UTSA
Wisconsin
Wyoming

FCS (Division 1aa):
Cal Poly
Chattanooga (current/dormant)
Cornell (current/dormant)
Dartmouth
Eastern Kentucky (current)
Idaho
Portland State (current/dormant)
Rhode Island (current/dormant)
Stony Brook
Western Carolina
Youngstown State

Division II/III:
Earlham College (current/dormant)
UW-Whitewater

Fictional:
Eastern Long Island
Marquette
Montana-Cheyenne Nation
UC Santa Cruz
UW-Southeastern

Things I’ve noticed:
Very few P5 schools. This is because I like a challenge and recruiting so I can compete. I’ve played 5-6 Army dynasties over the years. Also played with Hawaii a few times.

I’ll never play with Ohio State because I hate them as a Wisconsin fan. Also, I think their uniforms are gross. Basically the same for Alabama and Auburn. Notre Dame and USC make my list because of their dominance during the 2000’s. Boston College, gross uniforms. Clemson, because I’m sick of them dominating a weak-*** ACC conference and still playing 3 FCS teams a year on top of that. Eastern Carolina, I’ve heard enough about the culture on campus to not want to touch that even digitally. Don’t take offense if I listed your team (and their gross unis) just my opinion.

Aaaaand GO!

The only long-term, major dynasty runs I've had were with K-State and TCU. Spent 30-ish seasons with each of them. The TCU one is about to end. I'm so sick of purple at this point lol. Excited to start a new one.

That said, I have been experimenting with the editor to find a way to keep a dynasty going past 59 seasons. I found out that the only thing that triggers the end of the dynasty is the ending of the preseason of 2072. I first reset it back to 2019, but it messed up both statistics and contracts, though acted as if I could go ahead and play week 1. It let me go passed the preseason, anyhow. Then, I simmed the next couple of years and the stats and contracts stayed messed up; including the Heisman, which every year consisted of the top 5 all being from the same team, at random positions.
Next, I tried setting it on 2077. It let me go passed the preseason, but froze randomly when I was just switching between the main menus in dynasty.

So, long story short, I'm not sure if it will be possible to keep one going. Not sure if anyone else would even be interested in such a thing lol, but just thought I'd share.

Oh wow! I’ve never gotten that many seasons in. I usually get tired of the uniforms!

Off the top of my head,
Western Michigan
Baylor
Georgia state
Georgia
And then my team builder team the Alaska Warriors.

WMU went about 8-9 years, Baylor didn’t last long, Georgia state went about 12-13 years (I’ve actually had two Georgia state dynasties that lasted about 10 years), Georgia was a step up from one of my dynasties, and Alaska is my current dynasty. I’m on my 10th year.

Things I’ve noticed: certain schools tend to get good and others tend to get bad. Iowa for some reason loves to make a random top 5 run in every dynasty. Because of the rosters I used in my Alaska dynasty (nothing realistic, all random players), Kentucky has been extremely good and Texas Tech made a couple year run. Notre Dame has been the most dominant team, winning 3/9 titles so far. (UAB, Kentucky (2x), and Rice all won championships.

Georgia always seems to be a 7-5 or 8-4 team. Alabama tends to fall of the map but in my Alaska dynasty they’ve been in the hunt a lot the past few seasons (they’ve become a sort of hybrid option offense). The ACC tends to be bad in every dynasty. The PAC-12 tends to be better than in real life.

I have done a #GoWYO dynasty for 15 years. It was fun playing the pokes and they had enough uni-combos to make it interesting.

I had an Air Force dynasty going for 12 seasons. I still want to go back and replay that dynasty.

I did Umass for 10 seasons before going to Maryland to keep playing 5 more seasons.

I did Southern for 6 seasons (2as OC), then going to Duke for 6 more seasons.

Now I am running a Lobos death penalty dynasty and I kicked NM out of Mountain West until they got better. It's fun, but not enough color combinations.

Planning to start as a green OC at Arkansas State.

With NCAA 11, I was with Minnesota for about 3 seasons at least.
With NCAA 14, I have had dynasties with UConn, Mississippi State, and Florida State. Left Mississippi State for FSU. The UConn one is still present, but haven’t played it in awhile.

I played one year of Auburn on 11 when I still had that just to play with Cam.

I played several years with Temple on 07 as an independent and then ACC team and won a couple titles before going to USC.

I had one 07 dynasty where I simmed to 2016 and I played five years with BGSU, got hired at Clemson and was there five years and now I'm in my eighth season at USC.

I had one 07 dynasty where I played with UNLV for three years then got hired off to Mississippi State and then made them pretty succesful. Had another where I was at SDSU and then got hired by Alabama and won a couple titles. Idk where I have those notebooks, now.

In my OG 14 dynasty I started with Georgia State and got hired by Georgia in my fourth year and I won like ten national titles in twelve years or something.

In my promo-relegation dynasty on 14 I started with UTSA and I was there like five years and that off-season I started spin-off saves with LSU and Miami that I haven't played past recruiting. And a USC file that I accidentally deleted my newest season of.

I always end up at USC, which makes me think maybe I should stay at other places later, but that's the dream job... Can't pass it up.

And I could never play with ND, UCLA.. maybe Stanford, Oregon, or Cal. I care too much about them as rivalries.

Usually I start with someone low or mediocre and try to build them up. Now that USC is coming off of a bad and a middling year it's kinda like I can just use our real 2019 roster (on 14 and 06) without feeling OP.
