Below is the state of college football for 2018. Out of 130 teams there are roughly 831 white starters or about 6.4 per squad. About 11% of the teams this year have 11 or more starters, a far cry from the 30% or so teams that had this distinction about a decade ago, but a slight uptick from last year. Iowa retains the crown for the whitest team this year, expected to start about 15 white athletes.
