For those baseball fans who may also be missing College Football, you are now in luck. With the 2017 Mariners squad having so many star players, what College Football team do the players mostly represent?

The 2016-2017 college football was one of the better seasons in recent memory. It saw football in the Pacific Northwest become reenergized, it saw the SEC nearly roll through all its competition, and it saw a small school for South Carolina win it all.

For UW and WSU fans, their seasons went better than expected.

UW went 11-1 in the regular season and capped it off with a PAC-12 championship. Sadly, they lost to the Crimson Tide in the National Semifinals.

WSU went 8-4 and had a productive season and barely lost to Minnesota in their bowl game.

The 2017 Mariners hope to bring some of the same excitement. With a star-studded lineup, everyone believes they can. Because of my love for the two sports, why not combine the two?

In this piece, I will try must best to breakdown which College Football team would some of the Mariners stars be? Let’s find out.
