« Previous EntriesBig East Preview: UConn Huskies
Monday, June 30th, 2008Ah, the paper lions of 2007. This team got way too much run last year for being part of the competitive Big East. They started off the year 2-0, defeating I-AA teams Duke and Maine (be honest - Duke doesn’t belong in the FCS ). They then hosted Temple and won the game because the [...]
Big East Preview: Cincinnati Bearcats
Monday, June 30th, 2008I started as early as the off-season last year singing the praises of this squad. I am an unabashed Brian Kelly (right, Icon SMI) fan because he is an offensive genius. While last year was a nice step forward story for the Bearcats , 2008 will look a bit different [...]
Who will be the #1 Fantasy RB in 2008?
Sunday, June 29th, 2008I just added new polling functions to the site, spent a bit of mental energy narrowing down the list to five, and now I see “Other” is in second place.
WHAT?
QUE’?
So, if not Beanie Wells, Knowshon Moreno, Noel Devine (right, Icon SMI), Eugene Jarvis, or Ian Johnson, who is your pick to be the #1 running [...]
Fresh Faces: C-USA
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008Conference USA has been fantasy gold these last few years. This is primarily an offense-first conference that pays little attention to defense.
The good news is the conference will become even more explosive this year with June Jones taking over at SMU and Larry Fedora taking over at Southern Miss (get to know, DeAndre Brown, [...]
Player Spotlight: Austin Collie, BYU WR
Monday, June 23rd, 2008It would be one of the worst puns of all time to say that BYU WR Austin Collie (right, ICON SMI) is a man on a mission, but it looks true to me this year. Collie has taken a circuitous route to play major college football (at least for those outside Provo) and [...]
Fantasy News on Key Offensive Lines
Sunday, June 22nd, 2008 It’s easy for fantasy college football enthusiasts to get tied up in the skill positions only. After all, they’re the easiest to quantify, easiest to dissect, easiest to learn about and the easiest to spot on the field.
Still, we don’t give enough love to the guys in the trenches who are blowing [...]
Fantasy College Football Dynasties: 2005-7
Saturday, June 21st, 2008Time again to review who have been the best offenses over the last three years - we have found that many schools or even coordinators have an amazing track record of producing numbers every year and that should help narrow your focus on Draft Day.
This study uses team stats, not individual stats so this is [...]
Can’t get enough Fantasy College Football?
Friday, June 20th, 2008Having played fantasy sports for over 15 years, I am constantly seeking out new ways to challenge myself. With the growth of fantasy college football, it makes sense that creative minds will develop new ways to customize this game.
I talked to one of my colleagues from the Fantasy Players network, Craig Strachan. His [...]
