Brad Freeman's All-Time Lifetime College Football Team

So with this August being the start of the 150th anniversary of the start of college football, here’s my all-time team of college football players during my lifetime. I was born in July 1984, so I know the guys from the eighties, nineties, and 2000’s onward.

In college football there are 85 players on the team under scholarship. Then every year, somebody graduates, transfers, or there’s walk-on’s. Walk-on’s are guys that show up for an open tryout as a student-athlete in the spring and summer, and if they are really good that player gets a full scholarship to pay for all his academic expenses like the other players who are on full scholarships, and recruited by the coaching staff straight out of high school.
 
College has no preseason, so they start the very last week of August and finish the season with the national championship game between the 2 best big state schools around New Year’s.
