As we begin our preparation for fantasy college football draft day 2009 (early guess is August 22), we always start from the top down and look at history to give us a framework for the future. Sure – great players graduate and make room for the stars of tomorrow, but what schools consistently produce top statistical performances?

As I have done since 2000 I gather the most fantasy related stats for every FBS team (including those pesky Western Kentucky Hilltoppers) – and once again the state of Oklahoma owns the scoreboards with OU and OSU in the Top Five but both yielding to the Tulsa Golden Hurricanes for the top spot for 2008′s offensive rankings.

For a refresher, I rank all teams by yards per play (YPP), yards per game (YPG) and touchdowns per game (TDGM) then add up the rankings. Like for Tiger Woods, lower scores are better…

The Sooner State continues to rule, as all three teams were in the Top Ten in 2007, and the Oklahoma State Cowboys show up in the Top Ten every year since 2006. It is likely that Tulsa could fall out of the top ten due to the departure of offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn to Auburn, but Head Coach Todd Graham promises to keep the offense going with the same schemes under Herb Hand.

Probably no shock that nine of the Top Ten are spread offenses (not Texas per se), as are fourteen of the top 20. Later this week I will look at three-year rolling periods and debut the 2006-8 total ranks. Stay tuned.
