Can you believe it…the fantasy regular season is just about over for all of your leagues!

Gosh…it seems like yesterday when we were just ruminating over our fantasy drafts.  That “fantasy bust” you picked first in your fantasy draft (or paid 9/10 of your auction salary cap on) looked like a sure-fire fantasy-star three months ago…before he tore his patellar tendon while stealing a big-screen TV from his agents’ girlfriends house.

However, for you all who selected wisely…the fruits of your smart labor will be rewarded this weekend, especially those who have Oklahoma QB Landry Jones. Read the rest of this entry →

Amazing!  Hard to believe the fantasy season is almost over!

For most leagues, this is either the last week, or, the next to the last week, for regular season fantasy action.  These games are important for those fantasy coaches who are looking for a playoff spot…selecting a good fantasy team QB is a must.

Fortunately, this week, there will be few QBs off this week.  Also, many of the top fantasy QBs like Oklahoma State’s Brandon Weeden (photo, thanks Scout.com) have some favorable matchups. Read the rest of this entry →

It is already the eighth week of the 2010 college football season, and many of you are prepping for the run to your league’s fantasy playoffs…or finishing the final weeks of a lame season.

Still, everyone prefers to win…so you need a good QB.  Or, a seviceable one, if your top fantasy QB is off this week….and many top QBs are off on Week Eight.

This development means that some QBs who may not normally see regular action on fantasy teams are getting their shot at starting this week.  Others, like Texas A&M QB Jerrod Johnson, become one of the best plays of the week. Read the rest of this entry →

Each week, I try to select one QB who will break-out…a QB who either has a favorable opponent matchup, or, is just “due” to explode.

Even better…finding that one QB who may be capable to do both.

This week, Oklahoma QB Landry Jones (photo, thanks Scout.com), is the QB with a nice matchup who is due to really “explode”.

Nothing troubles a fantasy owner more than one of their star players and his team having a “week off”.  With the current set-up of 12 regular season games in 14 weeks by the NCAA FBS schools, there will be at least one week off for every FBS member.

However, some schools will have a week off….even as they play that week.  Witness the Oregon Ducks, who play Washington State this coming Saturday.  Their week off is scheduled for the following week (October 16), but, with a game at hapless Washington State this weekend, QB Darron Thomas (photo, thanks OregonLive.com) and his Ducks are probably going to have a lighter week preparing for the total destruction of the Pac-10 doormat Cougars.  Heck, Oregon’s toughest challenge will be choosing which far-out uniforms they will wear for the game.
