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.

Can you believe it…it is just days from the start of the 2010 College Football season!  And, of course, you probably want to know whether your fantasy QB is worth playing in Week One….like Texas A&M’s Jerrod Johnson (photo, thanks, Scout.com)

We got the lowdown on many of the top QB plays this week…and we even did this article on our own.  What?  You think we got Butch Davis’ Nanny to write this?  Come on… Read the rest of this entry →

The eyes of fantasy players always seem to light up a little bit more when the Western Athletic Conference is mentioned…it means “a lot of offense” in Fantasy-Speak.

And, for 2010, it could mean even more offense than in past years, as Boise State and Nevada return a good part of their offense from last season.  Also, some coaching changes around the league may upgrade some of the WAC’s weaker offenses.

You can be assured that fantasy players and leagues around the land will be jockeying to draft WAC talent like Nevada QB Colin Kaepernick (photo, thanks Scout.com) very early on… Read the rest of this entry →
