Welcome to Season 1

Larkdight Studios Aurora State Swarm Team Builder Series (Season 1) July 1, 2025 9:00AM CST

Welcome to the first season of an exciting new College Football '25 Team Builder Series! If you have been following me, you know I have done Madden Franchise Rebuilds, Relocations, GM Takeovers, Xtreme Takeovers, and College Football Program Rebuilds!

This time around, I am doing something never seen before. I have created a whole new experience by utilizing EA’s College Football Team Builder™ program. It is called the Rocky Mountain Conference, which will feature a litany of user-created programs through Team Builder™ but mainly focuses on the program that I personally created – the Aurora State Swarm.

I cannot wait to take this team into the College Football world and see if I can grow it into a perennial powerhouse or not. Either way, this series will feature some of the brightest and wickedly cool stadiums/jerseys that have been created by passionate College Football gamers like me!

Like all my rebuilds, I like to set three-year goals that the program needs to reach in order for the rebuild to be deemed a success. Here are those goals:

• Have at least 2 winning seasons (0/2)

• Have the #1 Conference Recruitment Class (0/1)

• Have 3 players drafted (0/3)

• Have a player win Conference Player of the Year (0/1)

• Win the Conference Coach of the Year Award (0/1)

• Win at least one US Mountain Championship (0/1)

• Land 50 4* Recruits (0/3)

• Finish any season with the #1 ranked offense in Conference (0/1)

• Finish any season with the #1 ranked defense in Conference (0/1)
