There are three sets of league files with 28 teams in each for a total of 84 great teams from the past. There are also K-Gun and R&S plans, and a readme.txt file. Be sure to read the readme.txt file before doing anything else to make sure you know what you're doing

112?
Rescaled version the 112 team INCAA files for division 1A colleges for the 1998-9 season, so that they more realistically represent the actual abilities of the teams. There are two college league files that are necessary to download (also, you must have the VPNFL files already as many of those plays were used):
NOTE: all files have documentation that should be read prior to their use.
college.zip - the college files. There are now eleven game seasons with the correct number of conference games, new profile assignments, thirty plus offensive plans including a wishbone set, an I-bone set, a multiple receiver set offense, and offenses centered around QB's running as well as passing (like Kansas State) , two additional offensive profiles, defensive profiles based on teams base fronts (3-4 or 4-3) with the correct punt returner in place, all players are set to 1 (freshman) to 4 (senior) years experience, roster corrections from previous release, and uniform corrections. This file should be placed into a directory structure of c:\sierra\fbpro98\vpnfl\college
ppp.zip - new plays (200+), plans, and profiles. It also must be in place for the files to work. It should be extracted to c:\sierra\fbpro98\vpnfl\college\ppp
bcs.zip - Ken Parker & Culley Summers' multiple page worksheet for use with Excel 97 and higher. This will keep rank teams by computer, strength of schedule, an AP poll, a USA Today/ESPN poll as well as having many other features!
cities.zip - this contains a cities.dat file to allow you to change the college teams to the correct locations. You will want to read the documentation on this if you have created new cities using Mycity. This was created by William Harris.
attendance.zip - an attendance program that William Harris submitted. This will require a couple other programs which you can read about in the documentation.

requires the VPNCAA files!
These can be extracted anywhere, but it is suggested that they do not get extracted to the original VPNCAA directory as the leagues have the same names as the previous release.
Qbkeeper.ply should be placed in c:\sierra\fbpro98\vpnfl\college\ppp This play will work better with the running quarterbacks in this file.
"Since we have set the potentials in these files as "college potentials", you can kind of project where the underclassmen will be after running through the training camps (i.e., the Juniors would have one more training camp before graduating).

Made up of "fantasy" players (generated names and ratings), modified to fit the VPNFL ratings system. Both actual and potential ratings have been modified. I designed this for those FBPro 98 players and leagues who just like to create their own football worlds (like me). The league can be re-pooled and drafted or used as-is; it has a large selection of FA's
